Abya Yala in the Crosshairs: Conversations on Anti-Militarism in the Region
25 November – 10:00 pm – 11:00 pm CET

Abya Yala has become a central territory in the U.S. war geopolitics. Under narratives like the “war on drugs” and “hemispheric security,” militarisation and territorial control continue to expand, reinforced by right-wing governments aligned with U.S. militarist policies.
This increasingly aggressive deployment turns security into a tool of social control, justifying surveillance, criminalisation of movements, and repression against those defending their territories.
In this webinar, we will explore how this doctrine operates in Colombia, Argentina, Mexico, and Brazil, and collectively reflect on strategies to confront the advance of militarism.
Date & Time: Nov 25 | 18:00 Rio de Janeiro, 16:00 Bogotá, 15:00 Mexico City
Language: Spanish with interpretation into Portuguese and English
