The richer countries are pouring money into their transitions away from fossil fuels. But these transitions depend on outsourcing dirty manufacturing to and importing critical minerals from the Global South. How is the climate justice movement in the Global South responding to this new “Green colonialism”?
Three activists and scholars–Nnimmo Bassey, Edgardo Lander, and Maryann Manahan–report from the front lines of the struggle. The event will be moderated by Manuel Perez Rocha, an Associate Fellow of the Institute for Policy Studies in Washington and an Associate of the Transnational Institute (TNI) in Amsterdam
