Gabriela Saenger Silva, a PhD candidate at Liverpool John Moores University, will lead a discussion on legal strategies, protest, resistance, and resilience in land rights movements. Joined by representatives from local, non-profit, and community organisations, this panel will explore indigenous knowledge, technologies, and the fight for land rights.

Panelists will share insights from their work advocating for equality, climate justice, and improved health through the arts, with a focus on both local and global perspectives.

The event will also feature a screening of Corumbiara [18], a 2009 documentary by filmmaker Vincent Carelli. Spanning 20 years, the film documents a series of genocides against Indigenous peoples perpetrated by landowners in the lawless region of Corumbiara, Rondônia, Brazil.
