The Global Pact Coalition is thrilled to announce our new partnership with the organization Green Amendment for the Generations.
The declaration is intended for adoption at a special session of the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) from 3 to 4 March 2022.
In November 2021, a second consultation was held on UN General Assembly resolution 73/333.
“Each person shall have a right to clean air and water, and a healthful environment”. This is the new amendment that the State of New York included in its Constitution on 2 November 2021.
In October 2021, the United Nations Human Rights Council adopted a resolution recognizing the right to a healthy environment.
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.
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.
NGOs, jurists, and citizens from all over the world are calling the United Nations to recognize the right to a healthy environment. This fundamental right is one of the pillars of the preliminary draft of the Global Pact of the Environment.
