⚖The @IntlCrimCourt has launched a new policy initiative to advance accountability for environmental crimes under the #RomeStatute.
🌱 The initiative takes into account the profound impacts that international crimes have on the environment, nature and wellbeing.

We argue that a thorough view of environmental harms necessarily means that remedies to these harms must be comprehensive.
