Ocean Guardians: The Pacific’s Climate Case to the World’s Highest Courts

Join two Indigenous lawyers as they share their experiences taking the fight for climate justice to the world’s highest courts. Julian Aguon, founder of Blue Ocean Law and a leading advocate for Pacific island nations, and Naima Taafaki-Fifita, senior associate at Ocean Vision Legal and founder of The Moana Tasi Project, have been at the forefront of historic legal victories like the ICJ and ITLOS climate advisory opinions, where the highest courts in the world have ruled that States have a binding legal duty under international law to prevent climate harm, protect human rights, and act urgently to cut emissions.

Please note that the panelists will be speaking through Zoom.
