Comments on the Zero draft study on Impact of Climate Change on Human and Peoples’ rights

The African Commission on Human and People’s Rights (ACHPR/Commission) adopted a resolution which sought to tackle the growing impacts of climate change in Africa particularly on the human rights of Africa’s inhabitants.

The resolution does so by calling for a study of this impact to be undertaken by WGEI and WG-ECOSOC under the stewardship of the Commission’s Working Group on Extractive Industries.

Natural Justice and the Environmental Lawyers Collective for Africa Initiative developed comments to assist with a further draft one.
