We will hear people and communities at the frontlines of extractivism share testimonies of how these industries are devastating people’s health, share stories of hope and how communities are resisting. Weaving together the testimonies, the hearing will close with reflections from Listeners, who will bring in their own experiences of resistance and organising as part of the wider health and climate justice movements. The People’s Health Hearing will be online as part of the COP 26 Coalition’s People’s Summit for Climate Justice, which will run from the 7th – 10th November.
