Billionaire or Community Solutions to Climate Chaos?

JOIN SPEAKERS:
• Million Belay, Alliance for Food Sovereignty in Africa
• Tom Goldtooth, Indigenous Environmental Network/Climate Justice Alliance
• Jill Mangaliman, Got Green/Climate Justice Alliance
• Silvia Ribeiro, ETC Group
On February 16, one of the richest men on earth, Bill Gates, released his vision of climate solutions in his new book, “How to Avoid a Climate Disaster”. Climate change is one of the crises used by Gates and his Foundation to justify urgent, technocratic “solutions” for altering food systems around the world. 
In response, we aim to amplify the work of social movements organizing in Seattle and around the world for Climate Justice. To counter top-down, billionaire expertise as the means of solving our world’s most pressing issues, our panelists will present an alternative approach centered on Food Sovereignty, with communities leading the way to a climate just future.

ABOUT AGRA Watch:
AGRA Watch is a campaign of Community Alliance for Global Justice. The mission of AGRA Watch is to challenge the dominant development ideology pushed by governments, corporations, and “private” philanthropic actors as they try to expand our corporate-driven, industrial model of agriculture into Africa. Chief among these “private” actors are the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and their subsidiary, the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA). CAGJ/AGRA Watch are proud to be a member of Alliance for Food Sovereignty in Africa.
