Communities, Law and the Mining Industry October 26 and 27th at UBC

Canadian mining companies have been accused of violating Indigenous rights, causing environmental destruction, and funding political repression.

Protecting the Land is a conference on mining justice that will convene lawyers, activists, and Indigenous land defenders from across the Americas to discuss how to challenge the current model of mining and protect the environment. At the forefront of the conversation will be three Indigenous leaders: Kanahus Manuel, Angelica Choc, and Ysidora Chaupe Acuna.

We invite you to come share in this timely and vital discussion.
