Transition Minerals And Indigenous Peoples - Spot1 (Igbo Language)

Fossil fuels and other conventional energy sources release many greenhouse gases that harm the environment. For this reason, there is global talk of the need for a transition towards the use of cleaner energy sources and the development of technologies such as battery storage systems, and other cleaner sources of energy. However, for the creation of these energy sources, so-called “transition minerals” are necessary, the extraction of which increases the danger of new displacements and the dispossession of territories from Indigenous Peoples.

Understanding The Second Wave Of Covid - 19 Khwedam

Covid-19 is still a grave reality, now with a new strain of the virus spreading across the world. When the pandemic first began, we did not expect it to last this long, and no one expected that it would spread so widely and have such a disastrous impact. As we move into 2021, it continues to be crucial to maintain social distance, avoid large groups of people, wash or sanitize our hands and wear masks consistently to stop the spread of the virus.

La pandemia de COVID-19 ha generado más dificultades para el ejercicio del derecho a la participación política de las mujeres. En las comunidades y pueblos Indígenas, las mujeres enfrentaron, entre otras cosas, un aumento en las jornadas de cuidados hacia otras personas. En lugares como Ayutla de los Libres, Guerrero, México, este incremento de responsabilidades en el cuidado ocasionó que durante el tiempo de pandemia pocas mujeres ocuparan espacios de representación pública.

Durante la pandemia de Covid-19, las mujeres han tenido un papel fundamental, respondiendo con eficacia a las necesidades que trajo consigo esta contingencia sanitaria. No obstante, se acrecentaron las dificultades para el ejercicio de su derecho a la participación política y se enfrentaron, entre otras cosas, a un incremento en las jornadas de cuidados hacia sus familias, a mayor marginación y violencia.
