“We will stand firm and face forward, assuming the commitment to the population. We will be in the streets until the Government understands that this is not an isolated fight, but a collective defense of water, air and life,” expressed the representative of the movement.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe feminist leader insisted that allowing projects that affect the Cordillera Septentrional would mean condemning the communities to face serious environmental consequences, including water scarcity and air pollution, so she called on the authorities to listen to the citizens’ clamor before making decisions that could be irreversible.\n\nIn that sense, he recalled that this resistance is part of other historical struggles fought in the country in defense of natural resources, citing as a reference the case of Loma Miranda, a symbol of social mobilization against extractive projects that have generated widespread rejection in different sectors.\n\n\n
