Abstract

This research paper explores how artificial intelligence (AI) intersects with environmental crime detection and the protection of human rights. In an age of rapid technological progress, integrating AI into systems designed to detect environmental violations offers both significant benefits and potential risks that must be carefully managed to uphold human rights.

The study starts by discussing how AI can transform the detection of environmental crimes, improving the speed, accuracy, and breadth of these efforts. However, it also highlights the ethical concerns and potential dangers of using AI without restraint, stressing the need for a rights-focused approach.

A major focus of the paper is ensuring that AI-driven environmental crime detection systems are developed and implemented with human rights in mind. It draws on international human rights laws and principles to stress that technological advancements must not compromise fundamental rights, such as privacy, non-discrimination, and due process.

The research further explores how AI can positively impact environmental justice and human rights. It looks at ways to use AI to not only identify and address environmental crimes but also to avoid disproportionately affecting vulnerable groups. This includes taking steps to reduce biases, improve transparency, and engage with communities.

Additionally, the paper addresses the ethical aspects of using AI in environmental settings, calling for responsible and accountable practices. It advocates for collaboration among governments, tech developers, and civil society to create a framework that balances the advantages of AI with the need to protect human rights.

In summary, this research offers a detailed and forward-thinking view on how AI, environmental crime detection, and human rights can work together. It aims to help policymakers, researchers, and practitioners create AI technologies that foster a fairer and more sustainable future.
