What happens when Europe’s push for green energy fuels new forms of extraction in the Global South? What does resistance look like on the ground—and how can those of us in Northern Europe stand in meaningful solidarity?
Speakers from the Decolonial Center, the Nama Traditional Leaders Association, the Debt Observatory of Globalisation (ODG), and an independent journalist reporting on Tunisia’s hydrogen plans share insights, experiences, and strategies for resisting these harmful projects.
