Title: The Right to a Healthy Environment and Climate Litigation: A Mutually Supportive Relation?
Author(s): de Vilchez Moragues, Pau; Savaresi, Annalisa
Abstract: The right to a healthy environment is recognised in the law of several states and in some regional treaties. Litigants all over the world have increasingly relied on this right to demand the protection of a host of environmental interests. This trend is expanding and as of late has started to affect also climate litigation. This article scrutinises the extent to which the right to a healthy environment has been invoked in the growing body of human rights-based climate litigation. It then provides an in-depth analysis of rights-based litigation that has occurred to date, with the aim to establish the extent to which the right to a healthy environment has furthered the prospects of applicants and, conversely, the extent to which climate litigation has bolstered the recognition of the right to a healthy environment.2021-04-28T00:00:00ZKnowledge Aided by Observation

Title: Knowledge Aided by Observation
Author(s): Haddock, Adrian
Abstract: According to G.E.M. Anscombe, knowledge “in intention”—“the knowledge that a man has of his intentional actions”—is not “knowledge by observation”. But Anscombe does not deny that observation-knowledge can play a role in knowledge in intention. She seems to think that, even though knowledge in intention is not knowledge by observation, it can be aided by such knowledge. This essay explains how we should understand this. 2016-04-01T00:00:00ZClimate Change and Human Rights: Fragmentation, Interplay and Institutional Linkages

Title: Climate Change and Human Rights: Fragmentation, Interplay and Institutional Linkages
Author(s): Savaresi, Annalisa
Abstract: The relationship between the climate change and human rights regimes has been the subject of much scholarly debate. The Paris Agreement and work carried out under the auspices of the Human Right Council have shed new light on states’ understanding of the interplay between these two bodies of law. This chapter analyses these recent developments, placing them in the context of the scholarly debate on the fragmentation of international law, analysing means to avoid conflicts and exploit synergies between the climate change and the human rights regimes.2017-01-24T00:00:00ZForest Biodiversity

Title: Forest Biodiversity
Author(s): Savaresi, Annalisa
Abstract: This entry reviews the composite international legal landscape addressing forest biodiversity. It analyses the treatment of biodiversity in international instruments concerning forests, and the treatment of forests in international instruments concerning species, habitats and biodiversity. The conclusions reflect on the complex picture emerging from the interplay of these sources, shortcomings in their implementation and challenges to future action, including future legal research.2015-11-15T00:00:00Z
