The CRRP researches anthropogenic climate change and the ways in which the law, and specifically human rights law, can respond to it. It does in four streams of research. Click on each individual stream below for more information.

This stream maps how climate cases have been litigated before international and regional human rights bodies to date, and how this may develop in the future.
This stream asks whether the remedies currently available before regional and international bodies for human rights violations are working, and how they could work better.
This stream will enable critical reflection on the ability of human rights law to meaningfully tackle the underlying ideologies, values and systems that have led to the climate crisis.
Understanding the drawbacks and advantages of a human rights response to systemic issues should inform the understanding of climate change as a human rights issue, and create a broader outlook going forward. This stream provides this broader outlook.
