The interoceanic canal in Nicaragua & communities' struggles for rights

For 8 years, Nicaragua has seen the emergence of a potent peasants' movement along with environmentalists and scientists in the front line against the canal. As the lead lawyer in the case, the human rights organisation Popol Na has opened an appeal to the project in the Inter-American Human Rights Commission.

In her talk Mónica López will share the experience of engaging social movements for the protection of their rights and environmental rights, while simultaneously facing a dictatorial regime.
