Call to address environmental harm of conflict

Original: Addressing the environmental consequences of conflict, towards the full protection of civilians.

The Conflict and Environment Observatory is pressing for stronger action on the environmental consequences of armed conflict, arguing that full protection of civilians must include safeguarding the environment they depend on. The group says wartime damage to land, water and infrastructure harms civilian health and recovery long after fighting ends, and is calling for this to be recognised in international protection frameworks.

Why now: Ongoing conflicts keep drawing attention to wartime environmental damage and gaps in civilian protection law.
