Stand with Colombia

Continuing the global fight against corporate courts

 7.30pm Wednesday 26 March

RISC, 35 – 39 London Street, RG1 5HL

Multinational mining firms are suing Colombia to the tune of $13 billions. They are using ‘corporate courts’, which are written into trade deals such as the UK-Colombia investment treaty. These secretive tribunals protect the profits of overseas corporations at the expense of human rights and climate action.

But now Colombia is taking a stand against corporate courts, and it has asked for our help to scrap the UK-Colombia deal.

Entry is free but donations accepted. Fair trade refreshments
