Published in : 2009 Available in : English Right to Food Studies are a series of articles and reports on right to food related issues of contemporary interest in the areas of policy, legislation, agriculture, rural development, biodiversity, environment and natural resource management. This publication outlines a range of concrete examples to demonstrate that access to justice is possible and useful to protect the victims of violations of the right to food. In the first section, we show that the traditional arguments against the justiciability of the right to food are today outdated. In the second part, we describe the conditions for ensuring that the victims of violations of the right to food have access to justice. We lay out the legal systems in which the access to justice is possible, and address the remaining gaps in other legal systems. Finally, we provide an analysis of current international, regional, and national jurisprudence and assess the impact of the access to justice on the full realization of the right to food.
