Defending our Territory: Mexican and northern Central American Experiences

In Mexico and Central America, in response to economic projects, extractivist policies, and armed groups that threaten the lives of communities and the territory where they live, social leaders play a key role in resisting and defending their land. In this conversation Alianza Americas seeks to listen to these defenders, make their struggles visible, share leadership experiences, and learn from their organizational work.
