📅12 October - 6 November 2025
Climate collapse is here: we have surpassed the 1.5°C increase in global average temperature over pre-industrial levels, and 73% of biodiversity has already been destroyed. This crisis is global, but it especially devastates Mesoamerica - one of the cradles of civilization, plundered by global powers. But we will not let this devastation happen without a fight, and this year we unite indigenous communities, climate activists, independent media, siblings, children, mothers and fathers, to seek new solutions to the climate and debt crisis.
🔥 What is the Mesoamerican Caravan for Climate and Life?
From October 12 to November 6, 2025, the Mesoamerican Caravan for Climate and Life will travel from southern Mexico to Brazil for the UN Climate Change Conference (COP30), amplifying the stories and demands of communities defending their land and fighting for environmental justice.
We respond to the war on life by uniting struggles, raising a collective voice and traveling together for climate justice and debt cancellation, but we can't do it without you.
Why the Caravan?
To amplify peoples' struggles and territorial realities through massive network coverage, a narrative campaign, and a documentary.
To articulate different struggles in Mesoamerica through spaces of encounter, dialogue, and celebration in resistance.
To promote climate justice through the distribution of informative material and the creation of conversations on just energy transition and climate solutions from people and nature.
To pressure governments and authorities regarding the urgency of the crises in Mesoamerica through a document of demands and joint hopes for COP30.

Ecological ec...
Although growth-critique is currently in vogue and degrowth is mentioned favorably even by the pope in his most recent encyclical, there is as yet almost no scientific research on degrowth as a social movement. We can now present the first empirical findings on the character of this movement, based on a survey we did at the 2014 Degrowth-Conference in Leipzig, in which 814 conference participa...
By Christiane Kliemann When talking about building alliances - the focus of the third conference day - the issue of equality immediately comes into view, as there are many dimensions of inequality deeply rooted in the current growth-based economic model. In order to overcome this model, all these dimensions need to be addressed and all possible change-agents equally taken on board. Adelhei...
