Other topics:<\/p>\n\t

We focus on promoting the protection and conservation of the environment with a human rights approach. We seek to strengthen environmental democracy in order to achieve better decisions, move towards a comprehensive territorial planning that takes into account the rights and duties of the people who live there and the way they relate to their environment, and face the urgent challenge of climate change and the effects it has on human rights.<\/p>\n
