By War on Want, Tipping Point UK and JunteGente

Post-Extractive Futures, a workshop series taking place between February 1-3 (11am NY/Bogota, 4pm London/Dakar), is a space of mutual learning about the world we can build guided by the questions: What can we do together that we can’t do alone?  How do we support each other in building the ecological and reparative worlds we need? 

We are very excited to welcome you all to Post-Extractive Futures, a 3-day workshop series, taking place between February 1-3.

Post-Extractivist Futures is a space for mutual learning and solidarity-weaving amongst activists dreaming, enacting and mobilising toward postcapitalist, ecological, feminist, afro-diasporic, intergenerational, indigenous and decolonial futures.

These rich futures do not fit under a single banner, but are associated with key ideas such as climate justice, just transitions, Green New Deals, Eco-Social Pacts, abolition, and degrowth. The goal of these conversations is to share experiences, lessons learned, cautions, recommendations, provocations and inspirations. We also aim to build connections between movements in different regions, to enact solidarity and strengthen alliances across borders.

Day 1 will focus on Visions , and will be guided by Wangũi wa Kamonji, Kolectiv Z (North Macedonia), Co-operative and Policy Alternative Centre (South Africa), and Mujeres Transformando Mundos (Mexico).

Day 2 will focus on Freedom Stories in the Caribbean, and will be guided by El Puente (Puerto Rico), Censat Agua Viva (Colombia), and Leve Kanpe Avèk Ayiti (Haiti).

Day 3 will focus on Healing Alliances, and will be guided by Futuros Indigenas, Third World Network, and Tese Onze.

All sessions will take place at 11am New York/Bogota time | 4pm Dakar/London time. The sessions will largely be held in English, with interpretation available in Spanish and Portuguese.

This iteration of Post-Extractive Futures will be guided by movements from the Americas, Africa and Europe. Future iterations will focus on the Asia-Pacific region.

Hope to see you there!
