Let’s implement the Escazú Agreement
We urge all states in the Caribbean and Latin America to sign and ratify the agreement as soon as possible. We’ve been fighting for the implementation of the Escazú Agreement, since September 27th, 2018. The agreement ensures access to information, participation in the forming of policy, and environmental justice for all.
The people in Latin America and the Caribbean, amongst the most impacted by the climate crisis but those on the frontlines often face human rights violations too.
In 2019 alone, 212 defenders of the environment were murdered—148 of them were from Latin America and the Caribbean.
The Escazú Agreement is part of the solution
Escazú Now!
September 26th is the deadline for countries to sign the Agreement, and 11 countries need to ratify before it enters into force. We need your help to get the countries who haven’t signed the Agreement to sign and ratify the Agreement now. With 9 countries that have already ratified the Agreement, we only need 2 more ratifications to put the Agreement into effect!
