The Proceedings of the International Conference on Climate Change, Justice and Human Rights is a comprehensive record of the discussions, research, and exchanges that took place during the three-day event. The publication brings together academic contributions alongside summaries of keynote addresses and panel discussions thus showcasing the diversity of perspectives and expertise from various regions that shaped the event. By combining the scholarly input with highlights from from policy and expert discussions, the Proceedings highlight both academic and practical dimensions of the conference. the provide the overview of debates, emerging research and policy perspectives.
The conference served as a global platform for experts, policymakers, researchers, and civil society representatives to explore climate change through the lens of justice, human rights, and security. Grounded in a climate justice framework, the conference explored how environmental challenges intersect with inequality, governance, and accountability, with particular attention to vulnerable communities and future generations.
The International Conference on Climate Change, Justice and Human Rights was jointly organised within the framework of the Right Livelihood “Climate and Conflicts: Redress and Prevention” project, implemented by the Global Campus Caucasus (Centre for European Studies -CES, Yerevan State University) in cooperation with the Global Campus Central Asia, and the Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence in European Studies: Democracy, Human Rights and Security – DeHuRiS project.
We hope the Proceedings will serve not only as a record of the conference, but also as a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and all those committed to advancing climate justice and protecting human rights in the face of global climate change.
