Description
Latin American territories seem destined to supply the material needs of the global energy transition towards renewable technologies. The advent of mining operations demands of people that they learn to re-inhabit the places they call home. This project engages with the question: “how do communities in the Global South learn to adapt to or resist the consequences of the energy transition?”
