The Right to a Healthy Environment Is Litigable From a Global Perspective Pathway Study

The right to a healthy environment has long been the application of human rights in the field of environmental rights. Despite the fact that countries around the world have explicitly recognized and adopted this right, judicial remedies still face severe tests. Justicitization is one of the core ways to achieve judicial remedies for the right to a healthy environment. Starting from the framework of international law and combining with regional judicial practice, this article will analyze the theoretical basis, practical obstacles and breakthrough directions for the litigability of the right to a healthy environment, and promote the transformation of the right to a healthy environment from an abstract right to a litigable right.

Abstract

The right to a healthy environment has long been the application of human rights in the field of environmental rights. Despite the fact that countries around the world have explicitly recognized and adopted this right, judicial remedies still face severe tests. Justicitization is one of the core ways to achieve judicial remedies for the right to a healthy environment. Starting from the framework of international law and combining with regional judicial practice, this article will analyze the theoretical basis, practical obstacles and breakthrough directions for the litigability of the right to a healthy environment, and promote the transformation of the right to a healthy environment from an abstract right to a litigable right.
