Abstract

Climate change presents an unprecedented challenge to the international legal order, raising urgent questions about responsibility, compliance, and enforcement. This article examines whether the International Court of Justice (ICJ) can meaningfully shape global climate action through its legal authority and judicial functions. It analyzes the Court’s potential role in clarifying states’ obligations under international law, particularly in relation to environmental protection, human rights, and the principle of due diligence. By assessing both contentious cases and advisory opinions, the article explores how the ICJ may influence state behavior even in the absence of direct enforcement mechanisms. The study situates the ICJ within the broader framework of international climate governance, including treaties such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Paris Agreement. It evaluates how the Court’s interpretations of customary international law, state responsibility, and transboundary harm could contribute to greater legal accountability for climate-related conduct. Particular attention is given to the growing momentum behind climate litigation and recent initiatives seeking advisory opinions on states’ climate obligations. While acknowledging institutional limitations—such as jurisdictional constraints, state consent, and political resistance—the article argues that the ICJ possesses significant normative power. Its judgments and opinions can shape legal discourse, influence domestic courts, and strengthen the legitimacy of climate obligations under international law. Ultimately, the article contends that the ICJ can play a transformative, though indirect, role in global climate action by reinforcing legal standards, enhancing accountability, and contributing to the development of a coherent international response to climate change.

Abstract

Background: Obesity is a growing global public health concern that is frequently accompanied by weight-related stigma, which negatively affects psychological well-being, social participation, and engagement in health services. Stigma represents a critical psychosocial barrier in obesity management that is often insufficiently addressed by conventional interventions focusing primarily on behavioral and clinical outcomes. Peer support has emerged as a promising approach to address psychosocial challenges through shared experiences and mutual support in community settings. Objective: This study aimed to examine the effect of peer support on stigma among patients with obesity in a community-based context. Methods: A quasi-experimental study with a pretest–posttest control group design was conducted among adults with obesity recruited from community health programs. Participants were allocated into an intervention group receiving a structured peer support program and a control group receiving usual community-based health education. Stigma was measured using a validated weight stigma instrument before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics to assess within-group and between-group differences. Results: The intervention group demonstrated a significant reduction in overall stigma scores following the peer support program, whereas the control group showed no significant change. Post-intervention stigma levels were significantly lower in the intervention group compared to the control group. Subdomain analysis revealed substantial improvements in internalized stigma and perceived social rejection, with a moderate improvement in emotional distress. The findings indicate a clinically meaningful and statistically significant effect of peer support on stigma reduction. Conclusion: Peer support is an effective community-based intervention for reducing stigma among patients with obesity. The intervention addresses key psychosocial dimensions of obesity by enhancing self-acceptance, emotional support, and social connectedness.Community obesity programs should integrate peer support as a complementary strategy to conventional interventions, and future research should explore long-term outcomes and scalability across diverse populations.
