6th International Rights of Nature Tribunal: A New Pledge for Mother Nature
The 6th International Rights of Nature Tribunal continues with its third and final session titled A New Pledge For Mother Nature, a culminating event that will bring together findings, judgments, and reflections from the two previous sessions of this 6th historic Tribunal. Taking place in Belém, this final hearing will center on the most pressing environmental challenges of our time, especially those driven by fossil fuel dependency and extractive models disguised as green transitions. It will revisit the judgments delivered during the previous sessions in New York and Toronto, which addressed the end of the fossil fuel era and corporate and governmental accountability, while positioning the Rights of Nature as a legal and ethical response to the planetary crisis.
