At a time when mining, logging, and environmental destruction threaten both the land and the lives of its guardians, these women are rising. As defenders of their communities and the forest, and as women confronting gendered violence and marginalization, their fight is as personal as it is political.
This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from the women whose voices are too often silenced, and whose knowledge is vital to the future of our planet. Their resistance is not just about survival – it is a call to all of us to stand in solidarity and take action.
Expect storytelling, solidarity, and a deeper understanding of what it means to protect what we love – together.
Stories of Solidarity is a series by Flotilla4Change that brings together frontline voices and allies from around the world. Through shared testimony and lived experience, we build connection, deepen understanding, and spark action across borders.

Welcome to your F4C monthly hangout where you can meet your fellow sailors.
No agenda, just a chance for us to get together and talk about nothing and everything.
If you have any questions for the Core F4C Team, this is also a great chance to ask it face-to-face.
See you there! 👋

This month we’re hearing from the Lekeh Foundation who works at the heart of the Niger Delta — a region deeply scarred by environmental destruction, yet full of resilience and resistance. Join us to hear from Nbani Friday Barilule, the foundation’s leader, and voices from the Delta, as they share powerful, first-hand stories that few ever hear — and none should ignore.

This is a rare opportunity to learn from those who know the stakes best. Together, we’ll explore the intersection of climate, justice, and lived experience.
💬 Expect talks, Q&A, and raw, moving insights that:
✅ Humanise environmental issues
✅ Reveal why our collective demands matter
✅ Challenge complacency and provoke action
✅ Uphold the principle: “No story about people without those people.”
This is part of Flotilla4Change’s Stories of Solidarity Series – evenings of solidarity, science, and storytelling. It’s our way of platforming the voices that matter, helping us all to realign with why we’re doing what we do.
Come to listen. Come to learn. Come to be moved.
Together, we can help shape a future rooted in justice.
We’re honoured to welcome three incredible guests whose unique perspectives bring depth, urgency, and hope to the climate conversation.
🌍 Kat Richter, a lecturer in Climate Change Politics from Bristol University, helps us understand the origins and drivers behind the crisis and the solutions we still have time to pursue.
🍃 Chautuileo Tranamil, an Indigenous Mapuche leader, activist, and storyteller, speaks from lived experience at the frontlines of environmental injustice, grounding the discussion in cultural wisdom and resilience.
⛵ Peggy Engelmann from Fairwinds Collective brings the spirit of sustainable seafaring to life, showing how community-powered, low-impact journeys can connect people and amplify climate justice.
Together, their voices create a powerful, human tapestry of insight and action you won’t want to miss.
This is more than an event – it’s the beginning of a movement. Whether you attend live or watch the recording, you’ll be part of a powerful conversation about our planet’s future and the role we all play in protecting it.
