Still Hopeful: Lessons From Lifetime of Activism’. With Maude Barlow

<p>In this episode of Planet Haliburton we take a close look at hope - what it is, where it comes from and the central role it can play in challenging the devastating impact human extractive practices can have on a vulnerable biosphere that supports all life on the planet.</p> <p>And we do that with one of Canada’s most well-known and revered progressive author/activists, Maude Barlow. Maude has been on the front lines of many of the key civil society-based campaigns that have helped reshape the face of Canadian and international economic, social and environmental politics for more than 40 years. </p> <p>Barlow has played central roles in the Womens’, Anti-Globalization, Anti-privatization, Water Justice and Rights of Nature campaigns, to name but a few. Each of these movements have energized efforts to create more equitable human societies that understand, respect and live within natural ecological boundaries. </p> <p>Maude has written more 20 books including her latest entitled “Still Hopeful: Lessons From a Lifetime of Activism, on which this conversation is centred.</p> <p>This podcast is hosted by <a href="https://wwww.zencast.fm">ZenCast.fm</a></p>
