Welcome to the Global Network for Human Rights and the Environment (GNHRE) international website!
Connecting Research, Policy, Advocacy, and Communities
for Environmental Justice Worldwide
The Global Network for Human Rights and the Environment (GNHRE) is a
network of researchers, legal practitioners, policy-makers, activists, students, and community leaders working at the intersection of human rights and environmental protection.
Through collaborative research, policy engagement, education, and advocacy, we create spaces where diverse voices come together to advance environmental justice, strengthen human rights protections, and contribute to sustainable futures across regions and communities.
About GNHRE
A Network for the Creation of Change
Environmental challenges and human rights concerns are deeply interconnected. Addressing them requires collaboration across disciplines, sectors, and borders.
GNHRE brings together experts and practitioners from around the world to generate knowledge, share experiences, influence policy, and support transformative action on issues including climate change, biodiversity protection, environmental governance, Indigenous rights, environmental defenders, sustainable development, and the right to a healthy environment.
Our network serves as a platform for meaningful dialogue, innovative research, and collective action that bridges academia, policy, and community practice.
