Support the UNGA resolution to endorse the ICJ climate change advisory opinion!

World’s Youth for Climate Justice (WYCJ) led a years-long global campaign to take climate change and human rights to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to get an advisory opinion (AO) – and with success!

Now the ICJ has affirmed that States have obligations to take more climate action, it is up to them to endorse the Court’s findings by voting in favour of the upcoming UNGA resolution on the advisory opinion.
