Podcast: The right to a healthy environment
Newly-appointed United Nations Special Rapporteur Dr Ian Fry joins us to discuss the human rights impacts of climate change.
How has climate diplomacy evolved in recent decades, especially in the Pacific? In the face of increasingly frequent and severe disasters, how can people’s human rights be protected? And what implications might climate displacement have on cultural identity? In the third episode of our mini-series on care, Dr Ian Fry – who will soon take up the position of United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights in the Context of Climate Change – joins us to discuss protecting people’s right to a healthy environment. Listen here.
