Legal notice from Pakistani farmers to German carbon majors: Implications for transnational climate litigation in South Asia
Nusrat Jahan Urmi
What the paper says
Climate litigation is an emerging trend in the Global South. The majority of cases are rights-based, seeking to hold national governments accountable to address climate-related harm. However, Pakistan has initiated proceedings for its first cross-border climate lawsuit against companies situated in the Global North. This development has significant implications within the South Asian context, particularly the shifting trend of climate justice claims.
