Dear Reader,
For a limited time, we are making some of the previously published articles from the Journal of Human Rights and the Environment available free to read.
In recent years, environmental law globally and locally has seen a rise in the take up of the right to a healthy environment. This is perhaps best shown by the UN General Assembly's recognition of the right in 2022 and well as the Inter-American Court of Human Rights recognising the right just last year.
The following articles explore how the right to a healthy environment shapes environmental law from multiple perspectives.
We do hope you enjoy reading about this timely and important issue. If you would like access to the full archive and future issues you can contact journals@e-elgar.co.uk to subscribe.
