The green transition model counts on an unprecedented acceleration of resource extraction, as the European Commission is drawing up a proposal for what is called the Critical Raw Materials Act, a piece of legislation that will, among other things, push national governments to develop new programs for resource exploration. What can, in view of these developments, be learned from experiences in the Global South, where a neo-extractive age is already well underway?
The event is organized in collaboration with Freie Universität Berlin and the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions
