What a pleasure to have @juanauz.bsky.social with us at HSU Hamburg to discuss the IACtHR advisory opinion as it connects to the lives, material realities, and fights of social movements in LatAm, especially of indigenous communities. Thank you so much for the brilliant and thought-provoking talk!
@juanauz.bsky.social explains how the #ICJ and #IACtHR climate opinions forge a blueprint for climate justice together, linking state responsibility, human rights, and reparations, establishing the "groundwork for a new phase of climate litigation.”🌎⚖️

Thanks to comrades at @cailesil.bsky.social for inviting us to connect the legal responses to the genocide in Gaza with our own research. It was an important space to identify the possibilities the law might entail for liberation.

The Inter-American Court of Human Rights’ Advisory Opinion on the Climate Emergency: A Global South Contribution to Climate Governance | by Juan Auz
EJIL: Talk!
“Capital is a process of abstract violence to the materiality of the real world.”
- @matthuber.bsky.social
The ICJ just opened the floodgates for international climate litigation.
Now is the time when every single climate-vulnerable state must file a lawsuit against the imperialist fossil fuels axis, namely the US, the UK, OPEC countries, Norway, etc.
A new dawn for climate reparations!
Is there any complementarity between the ICJ's and the IACtHR's advisory opinions on climate change? I argue there is, specifically on attribution, causation, and remedies, albeit from specific approaches.
Thanks to @voelkerrechtsblog.org for the space and a shoutout to the symposium organizers!
Folks are excited about the groundbreaking Inter-American Court’s Advisory Opinion.
It declares that the prohibition of significant environmental harm is jus cogens.
However, do you know what other prohibition is also a jus cogens norm and has been for a long time? Genocide!
How is that going?

Yes, the ICJ Advisory Opinion is the hot topic, but don't forget about human rights law!
