Webinar series
The Covid Crisis in Chile and Community Alternatives from Below

with *Katia Valenzuela Fuentes* (Chile)
------------------------------

*Friday 4th June - 3:00 PM *(UTC/GMT)

In October 2019, Chile experienced one of its most significant uprisings.
People demanded the end of neoliberalism, while hundreds of grassroots
organizations and local assemblies emerged. During the Covid crisis, the
Government's response has favoured the market over people, denying them
basic social protection and food security. However, grassroots
organisations are actively trying to tackle poverty with popular solidarity
and mutual aid. In this webinar, we will explore some of these local
experiences, their strategies, challenges and contributions to radical
social transformation.
