ANTI-EXTRACTION PEOPLE’S SCHOOL
Kako se narativ zelenih i digitalnih promena koristi kao opravdanje za širenje rudarskih i drugih projekata eksploatacije resursa na Balkanu i drugim mestima u ime zelene agende? Kakve vrste pokreta gradimo da bismo ih geografski ojačal*e?
Projekat „Grupe za zelenu eksploataciju na Balkanu“ (GGEB) polazi od borbi protiv rudarenja na Balkanu u kontekstu kritičnih sirovina EU i nastoji stvoriti prostor za kolektivne analize i akcije koristeći dekolonijalnu feminističku perspektivu.
Projekat nudi jedinstvenu platformu za umrežavanje aktivist*kinja, umetni*ca i kulturnih radni*ca u formatu kolektivnog prostora za razmenu znanja. Ekološke aktivist*kinje susreću se sa zabrinutim i angažovanim građan*kama i ne-građan*kama kako bi predstavil*e svoje borbe u okviru EU i potražil*e alternativne puteve. Kroz kolektivno učenje razvijaju se nove i radikalne forme participacije i društvene reprodukcije.
Sesije se održavaju u formatu „narodnog univerziteta“ u bliskoj saradnji sa kulturnim centrom 4thangrund, gde se oslanja na prakse učenja u tradiciji radničkih kolektiva i skupova. Program se završava javnim manifestom.

This conversation comprises contributions from different areas exploited for coal or mineral mining, mostly in colonial contexts: South Africa; the Swedish part of Sápmi; the Américas; and Bishkek in Kyrgyzstan. Building on intersectional feminisms, based on groundbreaking works such as Macarena Gómez-Barris’ Extractive Zone, we revisit different mining areas from the perspectives of women*, Indigenous people and workers, impacted by the appropriation of their lands or their work in the mining sector. We will focus on the situations and agencies of local people and seek (and hopefully provide) some footing amidst literally destabilized grounds of mining, aggravations of capitalist extraction, ecological devastation, and ongoing colonization by resisting extractivisms through our feminist approaches. In relation to artistic practices in various formats, we will tackle violent trans-corporealities, as well as emancipatory agencies.
