Austria and the Consolidation of the ECtHR’s Climate Jurisprudence Lumerding, Anna Maurer, Melanie eng 2026-02-17 electronic resource text/html ddc:342 Climate Crisis climate litigation ECtHR KlimaSeniorinnen Right to Property Standing Victimhood Verfassungsblog Verfassungsblog--2366-7044 CC BY-SA 4.0 The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) issued an inadmissibility declaration in the climate case of Fliegenschnee and Others v. Austria. While an unsuccessful outcome was expected, the decision nevertheless clarifies three aspects of the Court’s climate jurisprudence. Taken together, the case shows that the Court neither demanded more than in previous cases nor reneged on its requirements as laid down in Verein KlimaSeniorinnen Schweiz and Others v. Switzerland.
