Extractivist growth and alternatives from below: Why we can’t mine our way out of the climate crisis.

We will bring together voices from frontline communities and supporting organisations to discuss ongoing injustices related to mining and its new presentation as ‘green extractivism, and to discuss post-extractivist/post-growth perspectives which closely link the Global South and the Global North in solidarity and action.Yes to Life No to Mining is a global solidarity network of and for Indigenous Peoples, impacted communities, local organisations, and networks who are standing up for their Right to Say No to Mining and advancing life-sustaining post-extractive futures.
