On the heels of winning a case against the state of Colombia at the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, this event explores the critical role of Indigenous knowledge, resistance, and alliances in confronting climate change. Through firsthand insights and shared experiences, the discussion highlights how solidarity with Indigenous communities offers vital strategies for protecting our planet. Join Daris Cristancho (on zoom), a leader of the U'wa people of Colombia, and Leila Salazar-Lopez (in person), executive director of Amazon Watch, for an inspiring conversation with Professor Sandra Alvarez.
