Join the Global Pact Coalition and support
the adoption of an ambitious treaty
on the environment at the UN.
Since 69 states signed a declaration in favor of the recognition of the right to a healthy environment, 2021 is on track to become a game-changing year to achieve the international recognition of this fundamental right.
Since its launch in February 2021, the Global Pact Coalition hasn’t stopped growing. It now counts 740 members, including international NGOs, high-level officials, businesses and renowned jurists. Let’s dive into the details of this tremendous expansion.
in 2022, governments from around the world will adopt a high-level political declaration on the environment. For it to be as ambitious as possible, we have teamed up to form Pathway to the 2022 Declaration, a Blog by Jurists for Diplomats.
The new year requires us to build back better. 2021 grants us the opportunity to mark a turning point in our relationship with our environment and to enshrine the environmental rights and duties of all.
"This is not the right versus the left because there is no liberal air or conservative air. We all breathe the same air. There is no liberal water or conservative water, we all drink the same water."
"The Pact is supported by scientists, professors, students, celebrities, artists and many climate advocates who all believe that the time to act for our planet has come."
"A pact that can become the foundation of a new social contract for humanity."
"A Pact that recognizes the right of everybody to a healthy environment, that recognizes the duty of States and citizens everywhere to take care of the environment.”
"This pact is a paradigm shift: it allows us to do at the level of the environment what has been done for human rights.”
"Never was the time more opportune to support a Global Pact for the Environment”
