UN Human Rights is responsible for strengthening the promotion and protection of human rights around the globe and for addressing situations of human rights violations and making recommendations on them.

The Environment and Climate Change team at UN Human Rights looks at how the negative impacts of climate change and other forms of environmental degradation affects the enjoyment of all human rights globally, and at how to mitigate those impacts through an approach that respects human rights. 

We regularly publish policy guidelines, key messages, infographics and information materials to raise awareness on key thematic areas of our work. 

By subscribing to our newsletter, you will get updates on our work and key developments in the field of human rights and the environment so that you too can support realization of the human right to a clean, healthy and sustainable environment for all!
