Transformative Justice in Environmental Law

Transformative Justice in Environmental Law focuses on addressing environmental conflicts by not only resolving specific disputes but also addressing the underlying social and power structures that contribute to environmental harm. It aims to promote healing, equity, and systemic change by involving affected communities, recognizing their voices, and transforming relationships and institutions. This approach seeks sustainable solutions that prevent future harm, prioritize justice for marginalized groups, and foster collaborative, community-driven responses to environmental issues, moving beyond punishment to create more equitable and resilient environmental outcomes.
