Abstract

Today, within the context of protecting human rights, the issue of the relationship between ecology and human rights is becoming increasingly relevant. Therefore, our efforts to protect human rights should be carried out in parallel with environmental protection. This article defines the legal essence of every individual’s constitutional right to a healthy environment as established in Declarations adopted on environmental issues within international and national legal norms. Taking into account international and national legislation, the article clarifies the concept of a “healthy environment,” analyzes its place within the system of constitutional rights and freedoms, and examines the forms of implementation and the system of guarantees of the right to a healthy environment.
