Abstract

This thesis analyses the international human rights regime?s inability to adequately ensure the enjoyment of human rights in the face of climate change related human rights infringements. The thesis discusses the limiting effects of not including human rights in the body of international climate change agreements on climate change related human rights challenges. The concept of common but differentiated responsibilities as applicable under the international climate change regime is also discussed in relation to the limitations it places on formulating solutions to the global challenges of climate change.
