Abstract

This chapter is devoted to biodiversity litigation before international courts and tribunals. It will start by reflecting on the idiosyncrasies in this area of international law and defining the scope of the study (Second Part). The Third Part will assess the level of influence of international biodiversity law on international courts and tribunals, with a view to analysing the contribution of international litigation to the effectiveness of international biodiversity law. The Fourth Part will synthetise our key findings. The Fifth Part will conclude by identifying possible ways forward.
