IUS ET SCIENTIA, Número Extra, 2024, 32-51. https://doi.org/10.12795/IESTSCIENTIA.2024.mon.02.2444-8478https://hdl.handle.net/11441/161355La litigación climática estratégica basada en derechos humanos se está convirtiendo en una herramienta muy utilizada para exigir a los Estados que cumplan con sus compromisos climáticos. Asimismo, un buen número de estos casos está liderado por niños o jóvenes que han interpuesto las correspondientes demandas climáticas tanto ante jurisdicciones nacionales como ante instancias internacionales. Uno de ellos es el caso Duarte Agostinho, en el que seis niños y jóvenes portugueses han demandado a 33 Estados ante el Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos. El presente artículo examina los argumentos planteados por el caso Duarte Agostinho en relación con el respeto y protección de los derechos humanos y el cambio climático en la demanda y en la posterior vista oral del caso, y explora cómo la posición final que adopte el tribunal podría contribuir a la consecución de la justicia climática. --------------- ABSTRACT Strategic human rights-based climate litigation is becoming a widely used tool to hold states to meet their climate commitments. Likewise, a good number of these cases are led by children or young people who have filed the corresponding climate demands both before national jurisdictions and before international bodies. One of them is the Duarte Agostinho case, in which six Portuguese children and young people have sued 33 States before the European Court of Human Rights. This article examines the arguments raised by the Duarte Agostinho case in relation to the respect and protection of human rights and climate change and its potential for achieving climate justice.Strategic human rights-based climate litigation is becoming a widely used tool to hold states to meet their climate commitments.
