Popis: This paper aims to explore the new forms and varieties of advocacy in the context of climate change and international climate commitments. Global and local climate activists have developed their advocacy strategies over the years, but these efforts resulted in the absence of any national obligations, even morally, and non-binding effects. As for now, the activists changed their advocacy strategies to litigation against the government. Those new forms of climate advocacy create different ways of political pressure on governmental actors. Because the activist’s used climate agreements and treaties ratified by governments, it is almost impossible for the official actors to ignore this kind of action unlike protests or other forms of advocacy. This paper is navigating climate litigation as an advocacy mechanism in different contexts to better understand the effectiveness of this instrument in the national climate advocacy.
