HUMAN RIGHTS DIALOGUE: "Environmental Rights" =========================================================== Are you teaching courses on environmental rights this semester? The Spring 2004 issue of HUMAN RIGHTS DIALOGUE is designed to help students explore the definition, status, and relevance of environmental rights in law and politics around the world, and the extent to which a human rights lens is a helpful way in which to view environmental issues. Case studies cover Cambodia's fishing communities, the working poor in Dehli, the Arctic's Inuit, and other groups with direct experience of environmental injustices. - - - - - Go to "Environmental Rights" table of contents. http://www.cceia.org/viewMedia.php/prmID/4437 Go to introduction. http://www.carnegiecouncil.org/viewMedia.php/prmTemplateID/8/prmID/4442 =========================================================== 2.
