We are hoping to join along with the Colombian PHM country circle and ENLAZADOS (the regional Alliance of MAELA -the Latin American Agroecological Movement), the Movement of Social and Solidarity Economies, and the MSPLA -the PHM Latin American Coordination. The Colombian PHM country Circle and ENLAZADOS have been organizing and have proposed two main activities around this conference: 1) a face-to-face workshop on how extractivism destroys biodiversity and damages health called "Circle of the Word, Body/territory and Health"; and 2) a virtual global webinar about the same issues.</font></p><p style="box-sizing:border-box;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:1rem;color:rgb(25,27,28)"><font face="arial, sans-serif">The objective of the virtual global webinar will be to prepare for the physical workshop.
