Water, land, law and governance: an interdisciplinary dialogue

Description

This event will delve into critical topics such as land use change, pollution, and the struggles of Indigenous and local communities for environmental justice. These ecological conflicts can also trigger other forms of violence that extend beyond purely environmental discussions, impacting the human rights of affected communities. The role of law in addressing these conflicts is crucial, as is the need for diverse perspectives on human-nature relationships, particularly the incorporation of Indigenous knowledge to overcome these crises.
