The Third International Meeting of Dam-Affected People and Their Allies
Rivers for Life 3: the Third International Meeting of Dam-Affected People and Their Allies was held from October 1-7, 2010 in Temacapulín, Mexico. Hundreds of representatives from dam-affected communities, NGOs and other groups from across the globe gathered to share experiences, develop collective strategies and strengthen the international movement to protect rivers and human rights.
Faced with critical issues such as climate change and the desperate need for real solutions to the world’s water and energy problems, this meeting could not have come at a more critical time.
