| Summary |
"This book explores African domestic and regional responses and approaches to environmental protection and sustainability. Written by African and international experts, the collection consists of five parts covering the whole of Africa. It provides broad coverage of specific themes, including environmental constitutionalism, climate change, gender and the environment, wildlife trade, environmental justice, and human displacement. The key aims are, first, to explore theoretical and empirical studies to interrogate and provide clarity on academic discourse on how and whether environmental human rights approaches and policy implications have effectively enhanced environmental protection and sustainability at African domestic levels. Second, to investigate and present innovative solutions on how African domestic legal regimes deal with environmental justice, natural resources governance, refugees' environmental rights, and climate-induced displaced persons. Finally, to propose innovative legal and institutionalised solutions to Africa's ecological realities by determining the legal and regulatory gaps on environmental-human rights issues on the continent. The collection will be a valuable resource for researchers, academics and policymakers in human rights law, environmental law, political science, ecology and conservation, environmental management, disaster management, and development studies"-- Provided by publisher. |
