Prinsip Common But Differentiated Responsibilities: Environmentally Displaced Persons dan Para Penyumbang Emisi Karbon

ALSA LC UGM Research Team 2023/2024 proudly presents an article of “Prinsip Common but Differentiated Responsibilities: Environmentally Displaced Persons dan Para Penyumbang Emisi Karbon”. This article addresses the pressing global issue of environmental displacement, where individuals are forced to leave their homes due to climate-induced changes, such as rising sea levels, extreme weather, and habitat destruction. As environmental crises escalate, so does the need to assign responsibility for these impacts, particularly focusing on nations and corporations that contribute significantly to carbon emissions. The principle of “Common but Differentiated Responsibilities” (CBDR) highlights the importance of differentiating responsibilities based on each country’s historical and current contributions to environmental degradation. By exploring CBDR, this article sheds light on the critical ethical and legal frameworks required to protect displaced individuals while urging major carbon emitters to take more accountability for their environmental footprint.

ALSA LC UGM Research Team 2023/2024 proudly presents an article of “Urgensi Pembentukan Rezim Hukum Internasional dalam Melindungi Environmentally Displaced Persons: Refleksi terhadap Kasus Ioane Teitiota”. This article delves into the growing need for an international legal framework dedicated to protecting individuals forced to leave their homes due to environmental changes. This case exemplifies the urgent and complex challenges faced by environmentally displaced persons (EDPs), who currently fall into a legal gray area, as no specific international regime exists to recognize or protect their unique status. Through examining the implications of Teitiota’s case, this article highlights the pressing necessity for global legal standards and protections for EDPs, emphasizing that a dedicated international legal regime could offer crucial support and rights to these individuals while encouraging global accountability for the environmental crises that force them from their homes.
