As part of the Generations programme for Lost Species Day 2019, we will be hosting a film screening and discussion event exploring the loss of forest cultures and livelihoods in Borneo. The series of films shown on the night will explore research by University of Brighton and CIFOR into issues related to care, gender and youth in the expansion of oil palm in Indonesia. The evening will be hosted by WEGO researcher Dian Ekowati in conversation with artist Deru Anding and Rebecca Elmhirst of University of Brighton’s Centre for Spatial, Environmental and Cultural Politics.
