Agorà of movements in defense of territories and for environmental justice in Naples

The complete program (in Italian), with all the information on the event, the plenaries, and the synopsis of the working tables is available in our Entitle blog.

From 4 to 6 March 2016, The Agorà of Naples will be held in the Castle of Maschio Angioino. It will be crossed by different groups and individuals who share the experience of organization, action and research on and into environmental conflicts, and who want to reflect together on ideas and strategies for building collectively a toolbox in tune with the social and ecological challenges of our times.

At the Agorà of Naples there will be the representatives of social movements, of local committees and of neighborhood associations from all over Italy, together with individual activists, scientists and researchers engaged in the critical analysis of environmental conflicts and in struggles for real democracy.
