Climate change justice and human rights : An African perspective / edited by Ademola Oluborode Jegede and Oluwatoyin Adejonwo. Climate change justice and human rights [Place of publication not identified] : Pretoria University Law Press (PULP), 2023. 1 online resource (285 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Description based on publisher supplied metadata and other sources. Populations in Africa are vulnerable to both the direct and indirect adverse effects of climate change that are of human rights significance. The urgency for states in Africa to implement climate interventions while they face developmental challenges, however, raises questions of 'justice' or 'fairness' between the developed and the developing states. Consequently, interrogating how the human rights paradigm may respond to negative implications of climate change and its 'fairness' is important as states continue to engage with the climate change standard setting. This edited volume critically interrogates human rights paradigm as an intervention to secure climate change justice for vulnerable populations; analyses regional protection against human rights consequences of climate change; and assesses emerging interventions based on domestic regulatory frameworks on climate change in selected states in Africa.
