Abstract

The effects of climate change become more apparent in South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) region, which has significant problems in protecting human rights and guaranteeing climate justice for all its residents. This research article digs into the essential relationship between climate change and human rights in the SAARC region, highlighting the vulnerabilities of marginalised groups. This work also focuses on the urgent need for a climate justice framework by analysing the impact of climate change on human rights domains such as life, health, food, water, and shelter. Investigations are based on the theoretical foundations of climate justice and the ethical and legal consequences of human rights protection. The Central University of Punjab Library provided this work’s study materials and online resources. The authors and institutions whose works were used as guiding resources in this research article have been given appropriate weightage.
