Bolivia’s 2024 wildfires were not just an environmental disaster—they exposed deep structural inequalities and climate injustice. @insideclimatenews.org covers the findings of #REDESCA #IACHR report. #ClimateCrisis #HumanRights #Bolivia #REDESCA

In an era of escalating climate disasters, a new report makes clear: emergency responses are not enough. Governments must address the root of the problem.

Thank you @katiesurma.bsky.social for this powerful piece based on #REDESCA #IACHR report on #Bolivia. A climate tragedy rooted in inequality, extractivism, and the neglect of rural and Indigenous territories. t.co/ut70hDkRPI #REDESCA #CIDH #ClimateJustice #Bolivia

📰 #Mongabay ha publicado una cobertura en profundidad sobre nuestro informe #REDESCA #CIDH sobre los incendios forestales en Bolivia 🇧🇴. El texto destaca los impactos sobre #DDHH y la urgencia de adoptar un plan nacional de manejo del fuego. #CIDH #JusticiaClimática

🔥🌱 We published a report #REDESCA #IACHR following an official visit to #Bolivia regarding the 2024 forest fires. +10M hectares affected, with severe impacts on human rights, livelihoods, and biodiversity. Urgent action is needed. ➡️ www.oas.org/en/iachr/jsF... #CIDH #DESCA #ClimateEmergency

The Inter-American Court’s Advisory Opinion affirms the right to a healthy environment, recognizes the right to a safe climate as autonomous, and declares Nature a subject of rights. A shift from anthropocentrism to an ecocentric paradigm in human rights law. 🌎

The Advisory Opinion by the Inter-American Court introduces truly innovative developments: it recognizes a new rights holder —Nature—, an autonomous human right —the right to a healthy climate—, and consolidates new jus cogens norms in environmental matters. All of this within a HR approach.

📜 80 years after the UN Charter, its founding principles continue to guide the defense of human dignity in the face of inequality, the climate emergency, and structural exclusion. A rights-centered multilateralism is more urgent than ever. #UNCharterDay #HumanRights #Multilateralism

For those who are interested in human rights and climate change this Advisory Opinion is one to watch, so please mark Thursday 3 July 5pm UK time in your diaries. Keeping fingers crossed for a really strong opinion.

🌎 The #CorteIDH has set a date to issue its Advisory Opinion on the climate emergency and human rights. This marks a milestone for the region and for strengthening inter-American standards on climate justice. #ClimateJustice #DESCA #CorteIDH

#REDESCA #IACHR warns: illegal gold mining is destroying ecosystems, polluting rivers with mercury, and displacing Indigenous communities in the region. Its impact on biodiversity and human rights is alarming. 📄 Full statement: www.oas.org/en/iachr/jsF... #REDESCA #IllegalMining #Biodiversity

Chocolate bars have gotten smaller and more expensive as global cocoa prices surge to historic highs. The underlying cause? An illegal gold mining boom in Ghana that has ravaged the country’s cocoa production: www.ft.com/content/57b7...

The impact of gold mining and other extractive activities on Indigenous peoples’ rights and the environment must be urgently addressed. Protecting communities, ecosystems, and ensuring accountability is essential. #HumanRights #Mining #IndigenousRights

The planet is facing an unprecedented climate crisis: 2024 was the hottest year on record, surpassing the symbolic 1.5°C global warming threshold. Emission reductions are urgent. We cannot turn a blind eye. We cannot ignore this. #ClimateCrisis www.bbc.com/news/article...

A month ago, we were in #Bolivia flying over the Northern Chiquitanía, witnessing the devastation caused by wildfires that affected over 10 million hectares. Today, the fires in #California remind us of the urgent need to act on the climate emergency everywhere.

I want to express my deepest solidarity with the communities and families suffering from the devastating wildfires in #California, which remind us of the urgent need to take climate actions that protect people, their rights, and the environment.

Wildfires in #California are causing immediate devastation: loss of biodiversity, soil degradation, disruption of water cycles, and increased carbon emissions. These impacts threaten ecosystems and human rights. #ClimateJustice apnews.com/article/clim...

Climate justice, economic justice, racial justice, gender justice, and disability justice, among others, are interconnected. The climate crisis drives pandemics and mass disability, deepening injustices and exposing a system accustomed to failing the most vulnerable.

📢 The IACHR publishes its report “Venezuela: Serious Human Rights Violations in the Electoral Context”. 🔎 It analyzes repression, electoral fraud, and violence following the July 28 elections, highlighting an alteration of constitutional order. 🔗 Details: www.oas.org/en/iachr/jsF...

I share the statement on our working visit to #Bolivia regarding the impacts of forest fires. Deforestation, the expansion of agribusiness, uncontrolled fire-use practices, and intentional fire-setting are at the heart of the issue. www.oas.org/en/iachr/jsF...
