Against all the odds, and despite the challenges that climate change represents for Latin America, not to mention the fact that the new global order seems to relegate the region to little more than a space for the “extraction of goods and knowledge”, women are demonstrating day in day out that they have the ideas and the unique and essential skills to propose a radical change in the matrix of civilisation at this crucial point in humankind’s history. This book talks about those challenges.
