Abstract

#EndorseTheAO is a campaign that originated in the Pacific and is led by the Pacific Islands Students Fighting for Climate Change. The campaign encourages state leaders to seek an Advisory Opinion from the International Court of Justice on climate change and human rights. An Advisory Opinion on the issue is important as it has the potential to be a catalyst for climate change action whilst clarifying international law on climate change. The government of Vanuatu will propose a resolution at the United Nations General Assembly in September 2022, requesting the Advisory Opinion.
