Antarctic Rights

What if Antarctica had rights and its own voice at the international table? Alok Jha explores that question with Cormac Cullinan, environmental lawyer, author, and advocate for the rights of nature. Cormac is a director of the Wild Law Institute and the specialist environmental law firm Cullinan & Associates. His groundbreaking book Wild Law A Manifesto for Earth Justice (2002) pioneered Earth Jurisprudence and has played a significant role in informing and inspiring the growing Rights of Nature movement. Cormac led the drafting of the Universal Declaration of the Rights of Mother Earth (proclaimed on 22 April 2010 in Bolivia) and is a founder and Executive Committee member of the Global Alliance for Rights of Nature. He was awarded the 2025 Shackleton Medal for the Protection of the Polar Regions and is a member of the Executive Committee of the Antarctic Alliance, launched on 1 December 2025. 🇦🇶 SUPPORT US 🇦🇶 https://shop.ukaht.org/products/donation 🐧 ADOPT A PENGUIN 🐧 https://www.ukaht.org/shop/adopt-a-pe... 🎯 FOLLOW US 🎯 ✩ YouTube: / ukantarcticheritagetrust ✩ Instagram: / ukantarcticheritagetrust ✩ Facebook:/ ukantarcticheritagetrust ✩ TikTok: / ukantarcticheritagetrust 🇦🇶 Add your voice to the Antarctic Rights Campaign! 🇦🇶 antarcticrights.org/a-voice-for-antarctica/ Season 6 of A Voyage To Antarctica is made possible by support from HX Expeditions.
