  • Episode 04 – Neo-colonisation: How do we move from extinction to inclusion?
    May 15 2024
    In this enlightening episode with Caroline, Cindy gives the context of post-colonial geopolitics based on continuing control of resources and ideology, and the devastating environmental consequences of the corruption and under-development that ensued from the puppet governments set up to replace direct colonial rule. Cindy outlines how the extraction continues today and how economic colonisation is accelerating in Africa with, alongside the West, countries such as Korea, Saudi Arabia and China buying land and assets well below their worth from some of the most impoverished countries with devastating climatic and social effects for all.
