We are experiencing unprecedented heat waves, floods and droughts in many places around the world. The Escazu Agreement aims to address the lack of environmental democracy in the region and protect environmental defenders.
Today’s guest is Felipe Pino, an environmental lawyer based in Chile. He explains how his organization is working to implement Escazu and why this agreement is so significant to advance environmental democracy.

How do we do government differently? Listen to conversations with leaders who break the mold — from anti-corruption advocates to social justice champions, and public servants who fight for transparency, inclusion, participation, and accountability in government. Join host Stephanie Bluma as she shares insights on what governments and civil society from different regions of the world can learn from each other — and how we can renew our societies. This podcast is a production of Open Government Partnership and Hueman Group Media.
