Rights of Nature 2
Rights of Nature 2
Rationale/Activity The “Rights of Nature” is a principle that values the inherent worth and
Description rights of natural systems and ecosystems, and asserts that they have the
right to exist, flourish, and evolve. This is a paradigm shift from human-
centered environmentalism to the prioritization of the health and well-
being of the planet and all its components, including non-human
components like natural processes and ecosystems. Proponents argue
that this approach and perspective can lead to a more sustainable
relationship between humans and the environment.
To heed the call of the basic sectors, the PPS of the NAPC would like to
conduct a consultative workshop on the Rights of Nature to increase the
awareness of environmental defenders, climate advocates, academes,
lawmakers, service providers, among others. The workshop will also
discuss the implications of the Rights of Nature to our current programs
and legislation.
Objectives
1. Increase the awareness and understanding of CSO leaders,
academes, basic sectors, and NGAs on the Rights of Nature as a
legal framework.
Expected outputs
1. Attendance sheet and activity feedback and evaluation results.
