Recent Submissions
From Chipko movement to global youth climate movement: Understanding it in the Indian context
(Global Campus of Human Rights, 2024-06-13) Dadhich, Timisha
The global youth climate movement faces significant challenges,
including criminalisation and lack of support from the governments, yet it remains
resilient. It is worth exploring India, with the world’s largest youth population, in
relation to the youth climate movement at the intersection of right to participation
and climate justice
Tunisia's new local governance project and the risk to jeopardise political stability and democratisation
(Global Campus of Human Rights, 2024-06-06) Chiraz, Arbi
The new local architecture developed unilaterally by President Said
presents a model of governance bound to pose serious challenges to
democracy-building efforts in a young democracy like Tunisia. Above all, it would
continue to widen the gap between citizens - particularly young people
increasingly disengaged from political life and those in power
Can human rights lawyers and legal academics support human rights defenders in new ways?
(Global Campus of Human Rights, 2024-05-27) Webster, Elaine
Understanding human rights law as a discourse of preventative
practice, rather than remedy, can support preparedness in the face of large-scale
emergencies, like the ecological crisis, but also in the face of ‘everyday’
emergencies faced by human rights defenders.
Ocean defenders are environmental human rights defenders
(Global Campus of Human Rights, 2024-05-20) Moogera, Elisa
Those who are protesting against unsustainable uses of the ocean or
exclusionary approaches to marine conservation should be recognised and
protected as environmental human rights defenders (EHRDs), due to growing
awareness of the interdependence between a healthy ocean and human rights.
Deliberative democracy: Facilitating environmental protectio
(Global Campus of Human Rights, 2024-05-13) Koutsoukou, Eirini
The interplay between states and corporations is complex because of
the increasingly blurred line between their spheres of influence. It is worth
exploring the benefits of deliberative governance as a means of transparency in
the decision-making process that fosters public participation and effective
environmental protection.
