In recent years, Colombia has faced attacks from transnational mining corporations targeting the important achievements of struggles in defense of life and territories.
Join this conversation with Colombian and international organizations that participated in the Mission to Colombia to #StopISDS about how these claims threaten peoples and fragile ecosystems in La Guajira and Santander.
Learn what you can do to take action to support their call for a Citizens Auditing Commission to facilitate Colombia’s withdrawal from the unjust system that allows transnational corporations to bring such suits in secretive supranational arbitration tribunals.
Organized by:
-La Guajira le Habla al País
-The Committee for the Defence of Water and the Santurbán páramo
-The International Mission to Colombia #StopISDS
