Abstract

This paper discusses the legal protection of human rights and environmental balance in the context of the energy and mining industries. It explores the importance of ensuring that the operations of these industries do not violate the fundamental rights of individuals, communities and the environment. The study conducts an evaluation of the existing legal framework, both at the national and international levels, governing energy and mining operations. By assessing the adequacy of the current legal tools, the aim of the study is to identify gaps and shortcomings that need to be addressed to improve the protection of human rights and the environment. This paper argues that legal safeguards must be strengthened to protect human rights, including the right to a healthy environment, in energy and mining industry operations. It proposes the development of a robust legal and regulatory framework that embraces the principles of transparency, accountability, participation and the rule of law. By integrating these principles, the paper argues that it can effectively address human rights and environmental issues in the energy and mining sectors. It concludes that the legal protection of human rights and the environment should be a fundamental consideration in the operation of the energy and mining industry, with the ultimate goal of achieving sustainable development and realizing a just and equitable society.
