Summary:
"Climate Change Law and Policy in the Middle East and North Africa Region provides an in-depth and authoritative examination of the guiding principles of climate change law and policy in the MENA region. This volume introduces readers to the latest developments in the regulation of climate change across the region, including the applicable legislation, institutions, and key legal innovations in climate change financing, infrastructure development and education. It outlines participatory and bottom-up legal strategies - focusing on transparency, accountability, gender justice, and other human rights safeguards - needed to achieve greater coherence and coordination in the design, approval, financing and implementation of climate response projects across the region. With contributions from a range of experts in the field, the collection reflects on how MENA countries can advance existing national strategies around climate change, green economy and low carbon futures through clear and comprehensive legislation. Taking an international and comparative approach, this book will be of great interest to students, scholars and practitioners who work in the areas of climate change, environmental law and policy, and sustainable development, particularly in relation to the MENA region"-- Provided by publisher.
