Advancing sustainable development and democracy are the underlying purposes linking the landmark Escaz� Agreement with the American Convention on Human Rights. Exploring both these treaties and the relevant regional jurisprudence, this monograph provides the first analysis of the ground-breaking environmental human rights law being developed in Latin America and the Caribbean. The key feature of the regional law is the priority it gives to equality and non-discrimination for vulnerable persons and groups, environmental defenders, local communities and indigenous peoples. This book brings practitioners and academics up to date with the legal tools for protecting people and planet.

"Aguilera's monograph provides an excellent overview of the development of environmental human rights law in Latin America and the Caribbean during the twenty-first century." -- Bradford C. Mank, Human Rights Quarterly, Vol. 46, No. 4, 2024.

From the Foreword by Constance Nalegach: "This book goes beyond breaking new academic ground as the first study with a true focus on the human rights law and environmental law of the Latin American and Caribbean region. It is set to become a mandatory 'handbook' for everyday legal practice related to the implementation of the regional environmental human rights law regime."
