QUNO recently provided three distinct submissions responding to a call for input by UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights and Climate Change and Professor of Global Environmental Law, Elisa Morgera, on the topic of the fossil fuel based economy and human rights. QUNO’s Sustainable and Just Economic Systems (SJES) and Human Impacts of Climate Change (HICC) programmes both provided submissions while additionally supporting 23 other organizations in a joint submission addressing loss and damage and human rights.
All three submissions are available to read and download on the QUNO website. They will inform the Special Rapporteur’s upcoming report on the fossil fuels-based economy and climate change, set to be released at the 59th Session of the Human Rights Council in June 2025.
