Human rights-based approaches to climate litigation. A critical perspective of the Athabaskan Petition
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This chapter aims at re-thinking in a climate justice context and in a critical and ethical legal perspective the international human rights law framework applied in the climate litigation realm. It does so by analyzing the Petition to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights Seeking Relief from Violations of the Rights of Arctic Athabaskan Peoples Resulting from Rapid Arctic Warming and Melting Caused by Emissions of Black Carbon by Canada, a lawsuit filed by the Athabaskan Indigenous people in 2013. The chapter’s purpose is to offer a perspective which focuses on the importance of discerning the latent patterns of exclusion, neo-colonialism, and cross-contamination of international human rights law against corporate legal power. Therefore, the chapter outlines the limits of international human rights law when it comes to protecting the rights of Indigenous peoples in the context of climate litigation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
