Earth Law Center and the Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature (GARN) Youth Hub led two sessions on “Youth and the Rights of Nature Movement: shifting the paradigm for all future generations” at the first IUCN Global Youth Summit April 7-9. As a result of the Rights of Nature sessions, a Declaration was drafted in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, and Hindi.

The aim of the Declaration is to galvanize youth around a common initiative; gain support and visibility of it across the globe, push for our policy demands within the IUCN and other forums and institutions and create a social media campaign around our commitments that raise awareness around the Rights of Nature and future generations.

Here are the links to the Declaration:
