RELEVANT RIGHTS: Article 3 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that 'Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.' Article 8 states 'Everyone has the right to an effective remedy by the competent national tribunals for acts violating the fundamental rights granted him [sic] by the constitution or by law.' In the Gabcikovo-Nagymaros Case, Judge Weeramantry, then Vice-President of the International Court of Justice in The Hague, articulated the customary law view that 'damage to the environment can impair and undermine all the human rights spoken of in the Universal Declaration and other human rights instruments'.
