Why are the USA lagging behind on business and human rights negociations, when these are now on the table at EU and UN level? We want to use our film, to build alliances and to push this debate further in the USA, reason why we were in DC this week, invited by the amazing Double Exposure Investigative Film Festival and Symposium A project about business and human rights was actually introduced in the US Congress in 2019. Since then nothing is happening on that side of the Atlantic whereas the safety of those protecting our planet has not improved at all. 700+ environmental and human rights defenders are being killed every year. Often with the direct or indrect support of US or EU companies investing in these projects. 700+ is a serious problem, meaning 2 every single day, and we are not even talking about those injured or those getting death threats... What we need in this struggle is unity. Please contact Erika González Ramírez or I, if you work on these issues or if you could put us in touch with US organisations working on these issues in order to plan some screenings of the film and bring there the debate with more strength 🌱 I found this 2022 article that sums up some interesting points about the situation on that part of the world: https://lnkd.in/ecmSeVTU Thanks for the great Q&A with Lana Garland after the screening and the impact crash workshop with the motivated film festival volunteer Ryan, Cyan , Stephen :) Thanks to the film protagonists, film crew and the impact partners: IUCN NL, International Land Coalition, Protection International , CCFD-Terre Solidaire, European Environmental Bureau, European Coalition for Corporate Justice , Action Solidarité Tiers Monde asbl, Misereor, The StoryBoard Collective , Oxfam België/Belgique, Oxfam Intermón, Oxfam Denmark , CNCD-11.11.11, 11.11.11 , EU-LAT Advocacy Network, CIDSE , CARE Norway , Both ENDS , Fastenaktion - Action de Carême - Azione Quaresimale, Trócaire, Coalition pour des multinationales responsables , FIFDH Geneva impact day Film impact tour official website: https://lnkd.in/eFQJM8Ng #humanrights #environmentaljustice #corporatejustice #csddd #bindingtreaty

📢 Join the Conversation on Human Rights & Innovation! 📅 Date: November 2, 2023 🕐 Time: 13:00-14:00 (CET) 📍 Location: Geneva As we celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, it's time to address persisting challenges. Join us for a crucial discussion on the rights to clean water, sanitation, and education. Women and girls bear the brunt of water and sanitation disparities. Inadequate facilities affect their health, education, and security. Quality education is not just a right; it's a pathway to empower individuals and transform societies. Tailored approaches are vital, focusing on accountability across stakeholders. We'll explore the power of local knowledge, science, and technology in helping marginalized communities access water and sanitation. Climate change directly impacts human rights, especially for vulnerable groups. The link between climate change and migration adds complexity to the discussion. Our work in the Sahel region highlights the need for holistic approaches that engage local stakeholders. In conclusion, water infrastructure and innovative tech are key to safeguarding rights. It's a collective effort involving governments, organizations, and affected communities. Join us and the International Association of Ahmadi Architect and Engineers (IAAAE) for insights and solutions. 🌍 Register here: https://lnkd.in/ggAwcJpa #HumanRights #Innovation #SocialForum2023

Various political groups within the European Parliament advocate for different ideologies and priorities. These groups include Renew Europe, The Greens/EFA, S&D, and The Left. Let's take a closer look at each party's background, leadership, and key priorities. Renew Europe, established in 2019 and chaired by Chairperson Hayer Valerie, champions centrism and a pro-European stance. With 102 members, they prioritize democracy, human rights, and the rule of law, rejecting nationalist movements and advocating for a tolerant, inclusive Europe. The Greens/EFA, formed in 1999 and co-chaired by Philippe Lamberts and Terry Reintke, focuses on environmentalism and progressivism. With 72 members, they advocate for environmental protection, social justice, and self-determination, playing a crucial role in addressing climate change and human rights issues. S&D, tracing its roots back to 1953, embodies social democracy and progressivism under the leadership of Iratxe García Pérez. With 141 MEPs, they prioritize solidarity and advocate for a more social, united, and feminist Europe, aiming to address global challenges through a united Europe while countering populist and nationalist forces. The Left, emerging in 1995 and co-chaired by Martin Schirdewan and Manon Aubry, stands for leftist principles such as workers' rights, environmental protection, and peace. With 38 members, they envision a Europe of equality, sustainability, and solidarity, opposing austerity measures and advocating for fair wealth distribution and human rights defense. #RenewEurope #GreensEFA #HumanRights #SelfDetermination #GreenEurope #S&D #SocialDemocracy #Progressivism #WYA #HumanDignity
