Climate change: sustainability, socialism and music



My latest blog for openDemocracy.net covers El Sueno existe the Victor Jara festival in Machynlleth, mid-Wales, which brought together environmentalists, musicians, academics and political activists from Latin America (Chile, Peru, Venezuela, Cuba..) and Europe (Wales, England, Italy, Finland...)to discuss practical solutions to climate change actually working today, as well as socio-economic scenarios for the future. I interviewed both women and men on a range of issues and came away inspired by seeds of hope, including the example of political and economic empowerment of women in Venezuela.
