COP16 - Virtual - Engaging Ecocide Law as a mechanism for Climate Ambition

Biodiversity Law and Governance Day (BLGD) 2024 at CBD COP16 in Cali

Engaging Ecocide Law as a mechanism for Climate Ambition

Virtual panel: 26 October, 11:00 – 12:15 COT


By focusing on its potential to mitigate environmental destruction and engage cross-sector collaboration, an international ecocide law would serve as a tool for advancing climate ambition. How would this mechanism work in practice?

Participants will examine legal barriers, governance synergies, and strategies to strengthen capacity in implementing ecocide law, while also exploring its potential to drive stronger planning regulations and climate finance frameworks within and across sectors.
