Join us as Professor Cohen explores the critical intersection between human rights and climate change, examining how environmental degradation increasingly threatens the realization of fundamental rights and freedoms. This conversation will consider the role of courts, international bodies, and civil society in advancing climate justice. By connecting these dots, the discussion aims to identify pathways for more equitable climate governance.
