National Consultation in Ranchi
A National Consultation was held in Ranchi on 20-21 June 2009 to evolve a people’s understanding to the climate crisis. It was hosted by NFFPFW and co-organised by many organisations including NTUI. It was decided in this meeting that efforts would be made to expand the platform and use internal and other resources to prepare advocacy materials on this issue and work closely with organisations that are currently engaged in struggles for their lives and livelihoods typically in forest areas, mining belts, hills and in the coasts against corporate interests that is also endangering the environment.
