Description: We continue our conversation with Eriel Deranger, member of the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation and the executive director of Indigenous Climate Action. She is in Madrid, Spain, for the COP25 United Nations climate summit, where indigenous leaders are demanding action on the climate crisis, an end to resource extraction destroying their territories, and justice for missing and murdered indigenous women and girls. Deranger says these issues are often liked. “In these extraction hubs, in these high-density places where we see workers influxing in, we also see increases of sex trafficking, drug abuse, domestic violence and general abuses towards women,” says Deranger.
