Indigenous Rights and Environmental Justice Symposium

Description

Please join the Latinx Public Health Network for a hybrid symposium on Indigenous Rights and Environmental Justice.

Given the global rise in assassinations of Indigenous environmental land-defenders on the front lines of the climate crisis, it is a decisive time to provide a platform for Indigenous peoples to communicate priorities for strengthening global environmental justice and health equity.

Honored speakers:

• Carla García (OFRANEH)
• Lucía Ana Ixchíu (Festivales Guatemala)
• Maria Orellana (Provida)

This event is co-sponsored by the Department of Environmental Health and Engineering. Email any questions or comments to pkahn7@jh.edu and pnava2@jh.edu.
