The implementation of procedural environmental rights: the BTC case study on the implementation of procedural environmental rights
Abstract
dc:description.abstractThis PhD dissertation includes a case study on the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) Pipeline Project and aims to examine questions related to the implementation and exercise of procedural environmental rights. The BTC Pipeline was constructed to transport oil from Azerbaijan, through Georgia, to Turkey. More specifically, this dissertation aims to examine: the obligations of state with regard to the implementation of procedural environmental rights under the Aarhus Convention; the requirements of private sector borrowers under the Equator Principles regarding the disclosure of information and public consultation; the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) in the light of its potential to be used for environmental protection.
