Securing Indigenous Rights in the Green Economy
Celebrating 50 years of promoting and amplifying Indigenous voices! Our latest issue of the Cultural Survival Quarterly is dedicated to uplifting the voices and struggles of Indigenous communities impacted by a new wave of extractivism for transition minerals such as copper, nickel, cobalt, and lithium, which are key in battery development for electric vehicles and other technologies. Hear from activists and community leaders about what a Just Transition to the green economy should look like and how Indigenous Peoples’ rights are central to shifting investment portfolios towards net zero.
