Armelle Gouritin is a lawyer. She is a Conacyt Professor commissioned to Flacso México since November 2016. Her research agenda is mainly dedicated to environmental law with a focus on international law, regional law and environmental responsibility; and the link between human rights and environmental protection. In her books, chapters and articles she formulates legal and public policy proposals.

Her research projects place special emphasis on the integration of human rights and environmental responsibility to achieve environmental justice (distributive, procedural and corrective). She has critically investigated the link between human rights and environmental protection with respect to environmental responsibility (approach: international, inter-American and European Union law); the link between human rights, damage caused by hydrocarbons, climate change, environmental risks generated by new technologies, and biodiversity (anthropocentric and eco-centered approach). Another area of research is the special situation of indigenous peoples and their environmental rights.

Dr. Gouritin has carried out studies for consultancies, NGOs, and public institutions on climate change (in Mexico), the rights of children with disabilities (in France), the prohibition of hate speech (in France), environmental responsibility (for the European Commission), and environmental rights (in Europe).  She has a degree in Public International Law from the University of Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne, with master's degrees in International Law from the Free University of Brussels and in Human Rights from the Saint Louis University (Brussels). She has a doctorate in Law from the Free University of Brussels.
