Contenzioso in materia climatica e separazione dei poteri: il ruolo delle National Human Rights Institutions

Climate change litigation and separation of powers: the role of National Human Rights Institutions

Abstract

This study aims to demonstrate the increasingly significant role played by NHRI(s) in managing litigation related to climate change. Thanks to their function and structure, NHRI(s) can represent a link between society and decision-makers, participating in the development of regulatory acts, and intervening in cases of violations of human rights by state and private authorities. The article highlights how NHRI(s) can offer a significant contribution to managing climate change by mediating conflicts and ensuring the protection of human rights.
