We want to encourage solidarity between Indigenous peoples, highlighting the power of existing actions, the links that are generated, the love of territories and living things, the pride of collective struggles in the face of colonial and environmental violence.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8211;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Programming<\/strong>: \u00c9milie Monnet &amp; Waira Nina<br \/>\n<strong>Coordination<\/strong>: <a href=\"mailto:wsdamaceno@gmail.com\" data-cke-saved-href=\"mailto:wsdamaceno@gmail.com\">Wanderson Santos<\/a><br \/>\n&#8211;<br \/>\nThese necessary, supportive conversations, dedicated to broadening the impact of the artistic process, take place thanks to the support of the <strong>National Arts Centre&#8217;s National Creation Fund<\/strong>.
