    Advancing Child Rights-Consistent Strategic Litigation Practice
    (Advancing Child Rights Strategic Litigation (ACRiSL), 2022) Nolan, Aoife ; Skelton, Ann ; Ozah, Karabo
    By clarifying what child rights-consistent Child Rights Strategic Litigation (CRSL) practice looks like and identifying examples of good practice and areas for development, the report aims to support litigators and others involved in CRSL in putting children’s rights at the heart of their practice. The report draws on in-depth interviews with CRSL practitioners and people with lived experience of CRSL as children across a wide range of global regions. It is also informed by the work of the project’s Child and Youth Advisory Group.

    Child Rights Strategic Litigation: Key Principles for Climate Justice Litigation
    (Advancing Child Rights Strategic Litigation (ACRiSL), 2023) Nolan, Aoife ; Skelton, Ann ; Ozah, Karabo
    Child rights strategic litigation (CRSL) is litigation that seeks to bring about positive legal and/ or social change in terms of children’s enjoyment of their rights. Recent years have seen a huge increase in CRSL related to climate justice being brought at the national, regional and international levels. These Key Principles for climate justice litigators working on CRSL emerge from the Advancing Child Rights Strategic Litigation (ACRiSL) Project. This is a three-year global research collaboration bringing together partners from advocacy and academia to work on child rights strategic litigation. The Key Principles draw on interviews and engagements with climate justice litigators across four continents, as well as a number of public ACRiSL Network events at which children and young people with lived experience of CRSL, litigators, and other CRSL actors working in the climate justice sphere shared their experiences. The Key Principles seek to show how child rights are being, and can be, integrated into climate justice strategic litigation practice. The Key Principles focus on four key stages of child right strategic litigation decision-making: the scoping, planning and design of litigation; the operationalisation of litigation, follow-up to litigation, including implementation and dissemination, and extra-legal advocacy (political advocacy and other campaigning, media work and communications).
