Making ecocide a crime - international update with Jojo Mehta, Ecocide International

Online webinar
Thu 28th Sep 2023, 8:00 am - 9:00 am BST

Around the world, communities, lawyers and even some nation states are advocating for 'ecocide' to be recognised as a crime. While ecocide laws exist in around a dozen countries world wide, Australian governments are yet to engage with the concept of making extensive environmental harm a crime. Join us for an important update about the global movement advocating for ecocide to be recognised as a crime in international law, and to learn about the organisations and nations who are leading the way.

Stop Ecocide International Co-founder Jojo Mehta will join Dr Michelle Maloney, Co-founder and National Convenor of the Australian Earth Laws Alliance.

Australian Earth Laws Alliance (AELA) hosts a fantastic month of webinars, workshops and discussions, exploring how we can reshape human societies towards Earth-centred governance and create a healthy, safe future for all life on this beautiful planet of ours.
