This webinar brought together academics, lawyers, activists, and individuals with lived experiences to discuss existing and prospective climate litigation that address the impacts of climate change and climate action on people with disabilities. Our goals for this event were threefold: (1) generate knowledge of key trends, opportunities, and challenges in disability-focused climate litigation; (2) catalyze the development of new disability-focused climate litigation; and (3) identify key principles and best practices for developing disability-focused climate litigation through an anti-oppressive approach. This webinar was co-hosted by BCCE’s Climate Change WG and Disability Rights WG, the Climate Litigation Network, McGill University, and the International Disability Alliance.
