Por qué asistir
In line with the motion presented by EcoMaires and the French IUCN committee “Operationalising the rights of nature through their implementation in the territories” (S045), this world café session will explore further and in operational terms concrete solutions to operationalise the rights of nature through their implementation in the territories.
Descripción de la sesión
In the past 16 years, the recognition of Rights to Nature and its elements has been the topic of theorical (scientific, philosophical, legal and moral) debates, symbolic declarations. In some scattered in time and places cases, rights were officially established by legal norms or court decisions in favour of Nature. It is now time to move towards a larger scale and generalisation and make rights of Nature the cornerstone of conservation policies as proclaimed by IUCN Res 100 in 2012. This session will highlight how States and local and sub-national governments can plan human activities in synergy with the rights of nature and to ensure the involvement of indigenous peoples and local communities. To do so, the session will consider a new, non-anthropomorphized legal regime for subjects of rights such as new category of legal entities that are neither objects nor legal persons, and experiment in protected areas.Organised by
