Volume 9 on Enhancing Compliance with Human Rights from Below in Times of Crisis investigates how local communities, civil society actors and grassroots movements promote and protect human rights when institutional mechanisms fail. Structured around five core themes—democracy and freedom of expression, grassroots struggles for human dignity, civil society in conflict, environmental advocacy and the interplay between technology and migration—it presents original case studies from South Asia, Europe and Latin America. Contributors examine social media activism, indigenous protection systems, AI in asylum procedures and more. With compelling analysis and field-based insights, Volume 9 offers an urgent, timely reflection on bottom-up strategies for advancing human rights in an age of intersecting crises.

It is true that environmental destruction concerns each and every state of the world, but as this study finds out, it bears more serious consequences for the poor developing countries than the rich developed ones. The relentless burden of meeting the needs of the growing population in these countries has brought a distinct possibility of erasing the natural renewable resource base from which human being inevitably reaps sustenance. There has been an attempt in this study to develop a conceptual framework of conceivable social conflicts that are likely to develop in an environmentally induced scarcity situation in the developing countries. This has been done by analyzing the role and formation of possible actors and theirs perceived conflicting behavior towards each other.
