They are both contributors and victims of climate change. This paradox reflects in a legal perspective: local administrations have a duty to protect their population in face of climate change and, in the meantime, are creditors of States and private companies&#8217; obligations to fight against climate change. This brings a particular type of climate litigations against cities and brought by cities in which human rights play a key role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>LECTURER<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/jorisfontaine\/\">Joris Fontain<\/a>, Associate at Lutgen + Associ\u00e9s, Ph.D. Candidate at Sorbonne Law School<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>SUGGESTED READING<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unhabitat.org\/wcr\/\">World Cities Report 2022 (unhabitat.org)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipcc.ch\/report\/ar6\/wg2\/chapter\/chapter-6\/\">Chapter 6: Cities, settlements and key infrastructure | Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability (ipcc.ch)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/daccess-ods.un.org\/tmp\/8574954.27131653.html\">UNGA Resolution, \u201cTowards a just transformation: climate crisis and the right to housing.
