Reflecting on the Right to Development from the perspective of global environmental change and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
- The UN Declaration on the Right to Development (UNDRTD) adopted in 1986 and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted in 2015 share a universal concept of development that refers both to individual and collective dimensions of prosperity and thus includes the rights of future generations.2 They thus offer a definition of the relationship between development and human rights that is very relevant for the 21st century. The core norm of the UNDRTD has been defined later as “the right of peoples and individuals to the constant improvement of their wellbeing and to a national and global enabling environment conducive to just, equitable, participatory and human-centred development respectful of all human rights”3.
