The Malé Declaration on Global Climate Change on Humanity is a treaty made by representatives of the 'Small, Developing States' who came together to sign the declaration in November 2007. The Declaration set out a clear strategy and path to link climate change and human rights together, and change the agenda of the campaign to prevent climate change, as well as create the new United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). There was little connection between climate change and human rights. The statement made clear that the right to the environment is a prelude to the enjoyment of all other human rights.
Mary Robinson's visits to many threatened countries, and her comments on the links between climate change and the connection's umbrella rights, brought this to international attention. In the Maldives, climate change is already happening, and it has been realized that, at international level, human rights provide a useful framework for changing the agenda. The islands in question built a broad and powerful coalition, organizing meetings in Geneva, New York and Malé. The capital of the Maldives is Malé and is located on an island of the same name; the population at the 2014 census was 133,019. The islands are under threat of extinction due to rising sea levels.
The statement highlighted the need for strategies to deal with climate change, both in terms of adaptation or mitigation, and to outline the outcome of a 'no change' scenario for humans, as individuals and communities. It was understood from the outset that the current body of human rights norms and principles offered a sound basis for responsible and effective thinking and action in this regard.
The United Nations
The UN Declaration asked the UN Human Rights Council to focus its attention on the impacts of climate change and human rights, and the Human Rights Council addressed the call. At the request of the Male Declaration, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights published the first study identifying specific ways in which climate change (specifically, global warming) interferes with the full enjoyment of human rights, emphasizing that States have a duty to work together protecting human rights from climate change. As a result of climate change, millions of people living today will not be able to enjoy basic human rights, including rights to life, health, an adequate standard of living and self determination.
The second pillar of this is that states have obligations under human rights law in relation to mitigation, adaptation and response measures. In addition, it is now well understood, in recent UN documentation, that States must "put human rights at the heart of how we handle and respond to climate change.".
