How are forest peoples in the Brazilian Amazon creating change and improving disaster resilience in their environment?

Alongside our exhibition Vital Signs: another world is possible join our free Lunchtime Talk with Andreza de Souza Santos, Director of King’s Brazil Institute and Senior Lecturer in Brazilian and Latin American Studies. Andreza will talk about her research around deforestation in the Amazon and its impacts on local communities.

Andreza's short talk will explore forest peoples' collective action, which is bringing about transformational change and strengthening disaster resilience in the Brazilian Amazon.

Andreza de Souza Santos will talk for 20 minutes, and then invite questions from the audience.
