‘The forest is a woman’ conversation series

Admission will be free. This series featured prominent Indigenous activists and leaders such as Ehuana Yaira Yanomami, Patricia Gualinga and Txai Suruí, as well as archaeologist Eduardo Neves. Through a series of conversations, crucial issues concerning life in the tropical forest, the many challenges facing this region and the struggle for its re-existence will be addressed.

The shared aim of these talks is to understand other ways of being and inhabiting our home planet. Eliane Brum stresses the urgency of action: if humanity does not react in the coming decades, we risk the Earth no longer being what we know today. She therefore invites us to reflect and join in the defence of our planet, reminding us that the Amazon, like other vital ecosystems, is fundamental to sustaining life in our world.
