The commitment of states to the safty and sustainablility of settlements in the safe of climate change in the context of international law

The present study addresses the commitment of states to the safety and sustainability of human settlements in the face of climate change within the framework of international law. The purpose of writing this study is to explain the legal obligations of states to the safety and sustainability of settlements in the face of climate change in the framework of international law. This research has been done qualitatively, analytically, descriptively and as a library. Climate change is one of the factors that has made the stabilization of settlements a challenge for decades and has caused a lot of damage to the human environment. Therefore, states have tried to control this phenomenon in the form of environmental treaties and conventions. However, many conventions and legal instruments emphasize the commitment of states to the sustainability of settlements in the face of climate change, as well as the reduction of natural disasters, all of which affect human settlements, and each member state has obligations to combat and control climate change. They have been responsible for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and adapting the human environment to the phenomenon of climate change, such as securing human settlements and places, but due to their non-binding nature, they are not much considered by states. But in any case, they can be effective as an effective mechanism in controlling climate change and securing settlements.
