Climate Change and the Testing of International Law
The Court will deliver its Advisory Opinion on the Obligations of States in respect of Climate Change on Wednesday 23 July 2025 at 3 pm (The Hague, The Netherlands).
From Monday 2 December to Friday 13 December, the ICJ held public hearings on the request for an advisory opinion regarding the Obligations of States in respect of Climate Change. An unprecedented number of States and international organizations participated in the oral proceedings: 98 States and 12 international organizations. The PPL has created a special page for the bibliography about Climate Change and the Testing of International Law: A Selective Bibliography by Ms. Eveline van Trigt. Previous versions of the Bibliography (without highlights) can be found at the bottom of that page.
