Climate Change
Climate change is a critical threat to human rights, disproportionately affecting vulnerable communities around the world. At NHRJ, we believe that every individual has the right to a healthy, sustainable environment, and we are committed to advocating for climate justice. Our approach is rooted in the understanding that the impacts of climate change—such as extreme weather, food and water insecurity, and displacement—are fundamentally human rights issues. NHRJ works closely with affected communities to build resilience, educate on sustainable practices, and advocate for policy reforms that address environmental inequality. We partner with local and international organizations to push for accountability and policy changes that prioritize environmental health, ensuring that the needs and rights of those most impacted are at the forefront of climate action.
