International Courts and Africa: Navigating Global Climate Jurisprudence | Masterclass 3: Adaptation from Policy to Legal Obligation

This third masterclass in the Mandela Institute’s four-part series examines how international and regional courts have reframed climate adaptation as a justiciable, enforceable legal obligation — not merely a policy aspiration. Drawing on global jurisprudence from the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR), the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS), the Inter American Court of Human Rights (IACtHR), and the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the session distils key legal principles and connects them directly to South Africa’s adaptation framework, implementation challenges, and Africa’s regional obligations.
