On 14 July 2026, Abuja hosted the Third Nigeria Socio-Ecological Alternatives Convergence (NSAC), convened by HOMEF and partner organisations under the theme: Deforestation, Mining and the Crisis of Human Security in Nigeria
HOMEF team discuss the Socio-ecological Transition
All communities have the right to defend their territories, livelihoods and the wellbeing of the people and the earth.
All communities have the right to say no to mining.
Belém, Brazil – As global leaders prepare to gather for COP30, communities from across the world are calling out the human rights crisis driven by mining. Yes to Life, No to Mining (YLNM) members from the Philippines, Ecuador, and Brazil are standing together to expose the violence, criminalisation, and impunity faced by those who defend their lands, waters, and ways of life.
Belém, Brazil – As governments and corporations rush to brand mining as part of the “green transition”, communities from across the globe are calling it what it is: extractivism, the same colonial system of exploitation repackaged in the language of climate action.
