Indigenous Resilience
Against Extractivism
As governments take us down a path of deregulation and climate inaction, Indigenous communities continue to lead a Just Transition. Sacred Earth (SE) is an Indigenous women-led organization that partners with Indigenous communities to build resilience in the face of climate change. SE provides support for community-led climate solutions and clean energy infrastructure; conducts Indigenous-centered research; provides training and educational resources; and advocates for equitable climate policy and Indigenous sovereignty.
In this session, Sacred Earth will share their approach to grassroots climate solutions, with a focus on lessons learned during their community education programs.
Join us for a webinar, “Indigenous Resilience Against Extractivism,” in partnership with Sacred Earth.
When: Thursday, November 12th, 11:30 AM – 1 PM PT
Location: Zoom, register here: https://yorku.zoom.us/meeting/register/9l3TL_tlRXikGGxCnL7lEQ
Speakers: Melina Laboucan-Massimo, Lindsay Beaulieu, and Farron Rickerby-Nishi will present about the pathways Sacred Earth is taking to achieve an Indigenous-led Just Transition, with time for questions and discussion. Meghan Robinson (IBE) will moderate.
We think this will be of interest to those working on Indigenous governance, environmental justice, climate, Just Transition, and community-based work.
