Antarctic Rights: A Voice for Antarctica

Antarctic Rights: A Voice for Antarctica

Antarctic Rights campaigns to recognize Antarctica and the Southern Ocean as autonomous entities with legal rights and a formal voice in decision-making. The initiative highlights escalating threats such as climate change, pollution, overfishing, and argues these challenges overwhelm the Antarctic Treaty System. It promotes an Antarctica Declaration to shift governance toward eco-centric principles and advocates for representative frameworks that safeguard ecosystems with rights-based protections.
