Rights of Nature: what are they, where do they come from, and why are they important?

February 8, 2023 by CORLA

Pogust Goodhead has a direct interest in Rights of Nature because of its experience in representing indigenous communities and people, its interest in developing the boundaries of the law, and its commitment to using litigation to address the climate crisis.

Pogust Goodhead is also exploring how to introduce Rights of Nature to litigation, both in Latin America in relation to forests and in England & Wales in relation to rivers, and to that end is grateful for the collaboration of Lawyers for Nature, the Environmental Law Foundation and Dr Joanna Smallwood, among (many) others.
