   CLIMATE LITIGATION AND PUBLIC PARTICIPATION IN
        SOCIO-ENVIRONMENTAL INTERNATIONAL LAW


LITIGÂNCIA CLIMÁTICA E PARTICIPAÇÃO CIDADÃ NO DIREITO
                  INTERNACIONAL SOCIOAMBIENTAL


Abscract
The XXI  century climate crisis has pressured
the  reconfiguration of international legal
systems   for  environmental   protection,
favoring models   that integrate economic
development,      sustainability,   social
well-being,    and    cross-border    and
intergenerational   responsibility. With
climate  litigation, a legal space emerges
with  the  challenge  of  moderating   the
developments   of public  participation in
environmental  governance. In this context,
this  study investigates whether   climate
litigation has structured a space for civil
society to contribute to the construction
of a  socio-environmentalist order within
regional human  rights systems. The research
adopts   a  qualitative  and   exploratory
approach,    employing    the   deductive
method   and  documentary  analysis, using
the Global Climate Litigation Report 2023
as  reference. Findings indicate that  the
Inter-American   Court  recognizes  states'

Resumo
A  crise climática do século XXI tem pressio-
nado  a reconfguração dos sistemas jurídicos
internacionais na  proteção  ambiental  de
maneira  a prestigiar modelos que aliem de-
senvolvimento  econômico, sustentabilidade,
bem-estar social e responsabilidade transfron-
teiriça e transgeracional. Por meio da litigan-
cia climática, surge um espaço jurídico que
tem  o desafio de moderar os desdobramentos
da participação popular na governança am-
biental. À luz disso, este estudo investiga se a
litigância climática tem estruturado um espa-
çopara  que a sociedade civil contribuapara a
construção de uma  ordem socioambientalista
nos sistemas regionais de direitos humanos. A
pesquisa adota uma abordagem  qualitativa e
exploratória, empregando o método dedutivo e
análise documental, dispondo como referência
o Global Climate Litigation Report 2023. Os
achados indicam que a Corte Interamericana
reconhece a responsabilidade transfronteiriça
dos Estados, mas mantém  barreiras de acesso;
