Abstract

This is my first post as a new faculty member with Dalhousie University’s Schulich School of Law and Marine & Environmental Law Institute. My aim is to draw attention to the relationship between environmental and climate justice issues, and the business and human rights movement. I will first introduce the United Nations Forum on Business and Human Rights and the theme of access to effective remedy, then consider the relationship between human rights and environment. I will then briefly describe several sessions at the Forum which considered or could have considered human rights and environment issues, before offering some reflections on climate justice and gender.
