Ofelia will speak on border militarization and Israel's Elbit spy towers on the Tohono O'odham Nation. Ofelia and Michelle will join by teleconference, as travel posed too much risk at this time. |

INDIGENOUS PEOPLES
The CSIA-Nitassinan at the Summer University of Social Movements and Solidarity / Nantes 2021
Original in French: http://www.csia-nitassinan.org/spip.php?article1202
The Summer University of Social Movements and Solidarity takes place every two years. It is organized and supported by many French organizations from the social movement. This event aims at exchanging, debating and sharing militant experiences over several days by crossing the views and thoughts of a wide variety of movements. The movements of solidarity with indigenous peoples, in the forefront of which is the CSIA-Nitassinan, naturally find their place, especially with the help of the IPAM Network.
The 2020 edition, postponed to the summer of 2021 because of the health crisis, will take place in Nantes from August 24 to 28.
This event will be an important moment of meetings with indigenous representatives, trainings, debates, as well as a convivial and festive time for all those who share common values of solidarity and sharing. It is an opportunity for CSIA-Nitassinan members to meet each other and to meet other associative activists.
On the program, nearly 200 activities: workshops, seminars, highlights, cultural and artistic activities, off-site activities, but also convivial times to get together after more than a year of pandemic.
As for the presence of the CSIA-Nitassinan this year, it will be like our campaigns and our interventions, rich and varied in connection with many partners. Unfortunately, the delegation that was supposed to come from the United States around the Diné-Navajo lawyer Michelle Cook had to cancel its participation because of the pandemic, but will intervene by videoconference, notably during the Strong Time - "Indigenous and popular struggles and alternatives in defense of the land and against extractivism", on August 25, from 5:00 to 7:00 pm.

This workshop will discuss the links between neo-colonialism, environmental degradation and climate change: How to read the history of global warming in the light of colonial history?

Carriers of activities
CSIA-Nitassinan / IPAM / Aboriginal Youth of Guyana - JAG / Kanak Youth Movement - MJKF / Red Mapuche Suiza
Stakeholders
Taneyulime Ludwina Pilisi (Kali'na of "French" Guyana) - François Karé (Mouvement des Jeunes Kanak - MJKF) - Tania Marino (Mapuche of Chile / Aymara of Bolivia) - MODERATION : Aurélie Journée-Duez (IPAM Network / CSIA-Nitassinan)
WORKSHOP - Climate Conferences / COP, what strategies to assert the place of impacted communities and indigenous peoples in the front line against mega-projects

- School of Architecture - Project Studio 2A06
- Workshops
- Ecology / climate
- International solidarity / Altermondialism / ECSI
- Actions / strategies of social movements
From the COP 21 to the last COP in Madrid, the voices of the impacted communities and indigenous peoples who are fighting on the front line against capitalist and climate-change mega-projects are not taken into account by the governments. They need our international and decolonial solidarity because they are the ones who are resisting on a daily basis in the field and who are also proposing real solutions to save the planet and its essential resources, such as water.
This workshop will allow us to talk about the fight against the exploitation of fossil fuels (#KeepItInTheGround Campaign), divestment campaigns, resistance and the implementation of environmental alternatives, but also to denounce the false solutions promoted by governments and multinationals.
Carriers of activities
CSIA-Nitassinan / IPAM / Jeunesse Autochtone de Guyane / WECAN / Divest, Invest, Protect Campaign
Speakers
Daiara Tukano (Tukano from Brazil - RadioYande / WECAN ) in visio - to be confirmed / Taneyulime Ludwina Pilisi (Kali'na from "French" Guyana) / Automne Bulard (SystExt - Extractive Systems and Environments) / Juliette Rousseau (IPAM Network / ATTAC, former coordinator of the COP21 Climate Coalition) - Dorothy Grace Guerrero (Global Justice Now / UK COP26 Coalition) - to be confirmed / MODERATION : Sylvain Duez-Alesandrini (IPAM Network / CSIA-Nitassinan)
Objectives
* exchange of know-how and experiences* convergence and construction of common initiatives* training for action
ALSO - Collective
Friday, August 27 - from 5 to 7 pm - Assembly for Climate Justice
- Forum - Ecology / Climate
While the climate movements have experienced a significant development in recent years, and a few months before the COP26, we want to create during this GA a moment of exchange between the various movements and activists for the climate, to collectively reflect on the issues and difficulties that arise for these movements and the prospects of mobilizations in the short term. The format will not be that of a conference, it is above all a question of giving the floor to the people present.
We propose to discuss in two parts:
- debates in petals around themes such as local struggles, COP and international dynamics, jobs - climate, popular ecology, impacted communities, relationship to institutions (climate law...) ;
- in plenary with a general debate on the strategic questions that arise for the climate movements and a more situational debate on the calendar of mobilizations at the end of the year 2021 and on how we work collectively.
With the presence of :
Dorothy Grace Guerrero of Global Justice Now, for the UK COP26 Coalition
...AND IF YOU ARE IN NANTES, COME AND MEET US AT THE ISCA-NITASSINAN STAND, where you will find activist materials, t-shirts, books on indigenous peoples' struggles, etc.
