🌍 ⚖️ Can climate rights and trade policy really coexist? The EU is a global leader in recognising the right to a clean and sustainable environment, framing it as fundamental to human rights. Yet when it comes to trade and investment agreements, Europe often finds itself in a paradox: defending high standards at home while compromising abroad. Our latest blog by Ivana Damjanovic (University of Canberra and The Australian National University) and Ottavio Quirico (ANU Centre for European Studies and Università per Stranieri di Perugia) looks at how the EU’s ambitious legal framework on climate rights collides with the realities of global commerce, raising big questions about coherence, credibility and the Union’s role in shaping a sustainable future. Read the full piece now! ...And let us know your thoughts! Should the EU prioritise climate rights over trade competitiveness in its global agreements
