This report explores how environmental rights can be claimed and enforced within the EU, with a particular focus on procedural rights linked to environmental democracy. Drawing on findings from the Environmental Implementation Reviews, it assesses the impact of the European Green Deal on these rights and identifies key obligations that create opportunities for public participation, access to justice, and access to environmental information. The report also connects these EU-level developments with the global recognition of the right to a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment at the United Nations level.
