Report: Child Rights International Network (CRIN) is conducting the Children's Access to Environmental Justice research project, that aims to explore what role laws and policies play in protecting - or failing to protect - children when they speak out and seek justice and what we can do to make laws and policies better serve and protect children's environmental rights. They are currently publishing reports from 43 countries, and the conclusions/trends will be compiled in a global report. More about the project and the outputs:
