Climate Justice Timeline

Montessori Model United Nations is proud to introduce the Timeline of Climate Justice, a learning journey that connects climate and human rights as inseparable dimensions of the same global story.
For two decades, MMUN has empowered young people to speak for peace, equity, and sustainability. Now, as we look toward the next twenty years, we recognize that climate justice stands at the heart of this mission. It asks us to see that environmental change and human dignity are one and the same struggle and that how we treat the Earth is how we treat one another.
The Timeline of Climate Justice traces the intertwined histories of colonization, industrialization, resistance, and renewal. It reveals how the past has shaped our present crises and how understanding this story can guide us toward a more just and balanced future.
