We seek to:
Create a space for multi- and inter-disciplinary discussion on the human rights issues surrounding climate change. Produce research and education programming that outlines structural and systemic inequalities that expose communities and peoples to the effects of climate change over others. Generate recommendations to policy circles that reflects the concerns and priorities of frontline communities and peoples. Reform Western research methodologies to become collaborative, transparent, and latitudinal in their nature, moving away from the legacies of oppression and extraction that currently surround them. Our name reflects the need for a greater emphasis on collective rights and solidarity - known in international law as 'third generation' rights. Unlike first and second generation rights (i.e. political and socio-economic), collective rights have traditionally been neglected by the international community.
