Global Environmental Governance and Human Security

The slow progress of responses to climate change and other threats to human security such as armed conflict and global poverty and inequality, shows that the current global governance system is struggling to meet its obligations to citizens. Through research on accountability, equity and justice in global environmental governance and the evolving norm of the responsibility to protect we seek to gain a more detailed understanding of the institutional and paradigmatic bottlenecks in the world’s approach to solving major challenges and propose ways forward for a more effective global system to address human security issues. 

Our projects on Global Environmental Governance and Human Security:

• Accountability in Global Climate Change Governance
• Responsibility to Protect (R2P)
• International Criminal Court (ICC)
