Malu'i e Oseni – The Deep Sea Minders of Tonga
Channel: PANG Media
Date: 2021-06-18

In 2014, Tonga people had little warning they were about to join the frontlines of deep sea mining.


Apparently lobbied by overseas investors, the government of Tonga passed a law enabling deep sea mining exploration without full public consultation.


Since then, civil society groups in Tonga have partnered with regional groups to engage the public, seek their feedback - and take action on it.

In this webinar, participants see the premiere of the Tonga chapter of the documentary series, Voices from the Last Frontier.
