Reindeer Can’t Eat Money: A Conversation About Climate and Indigenous Justice
What is the price of justice and who pays the price? Meet Sissel Stormo Holtan, a Sámi reindeer herder from Fosen, indigenous and environmental activist Ella Marie Hætta Isaksen and Jonas Christoffersen, Lawyer, in a conversation about indigenous peoples' rights and what the fight for justice in Fosen, Norway, has meant for the Sami people's lives, culture, and relationship with their mountains. Moderated by Amanda Büchert, Journalist.
In the film »Let Our Mountains Live« the Norwegian Supreme Court rules that the wind farm violates Sámi human rights, but their victory quickly loses its shine. The conversation delves into the legal background of the historic Fosen case and highlights the personal and collective costs of fighting for justice when the opponent is the state, supported by large international companies. It is a conversation about resistance, identity, and the right to land and livelihoods.
This talk will be held in Norwegian and Danish.
