Abstract

The main objective of this article is to analyze how the right of interference and access to international justice relations are consolidated in the legal institute of environmental protection based on theoretical and jurisprudential notes and to point out the main trends of these themes supported by the data collected. In terms of interference, we investigated the possibilities of environmental interference from one nation to another or even interference by the international community in a country. And then, we investigate the issue of the individual's access to international justice to resolve disputes about environmental protection. The article concludes, based on bibliographical and documentary research, that environmental interference is currently only realized regionally and that the access of individuals to international justice to resolve environmental disputes is already a reality in international courts.
