The global transition towards renewable energy and sustainable technologies relies on minerals like lithium, cobalt, copper, nickel, graphite, and rare earth minerals. However, the extraction and processing of these minerals often occur in regions inhabited by Indigenous Peoples, posing significant challenges. The event aims to shed light on the impacts of mineral extraction on Indigenous Peoples and their lands, emphasizing the importance of Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) throughout the mining process.

🌟 Learn about the experiences and challenges faced by indigenous communities in Argentina, the Philippines, and Chile, and learn about sustainable and ethical practices that can minimize negative impacts on communities and the environment. By attending, you can actively contribute to a just and sustainable future for mineral transitions, respecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples and safeguarding our planet.
