The Inter-American Court’s Advisory Opinion affirms the right to a healthy environment, recognizes the right to a safe climate as autonomous, and declares Nature a subject of rights. A shift from anthropocentrism to an ecocentric paradigm in human rights law. 🌎

The Advisory Opinion by the Inter-American Court introduces truly innovative developments: it recognizes a new rights holder —Nature—, an autonomous human right —the right to a healthy climate—, and consolidates new jus cogens norms in environmental matters. All of this within a HR approach.
