We opened the Forum of Struggles for Land and natural resources with a webinar on Thursday 6 May, with about 100 participants.
Here is the full recording of this videoconference. It is in French (except for the interventions of Edurne Caballero, CERAI, which are in Spanish). The interventions of the panellists can also be viewed in other languages by clicking on 'subtitles/closed captions' in the video and choosing a language.
In anticipation of the first thematic discussion, the date of which will be communicated shortly, exchanges are already open in reaction to the presentations made by the organisers during this webinar.
