by Robin Broad and John Cavanagh
The Water Defenders tells the important story of a community in El Salvador that took on an international mining corporation at seemingly insurmountable odds and won. Based on over a decade of research and their own role as international allies of the community, Robin Broad and John Cavanagh immerse the reader in the lives of the ordinary people who rallied together to prevent the mining corporation from poisoning the country’s main water source. At a time when countless communities are resisting powerful corporations, The Water Defenders provides valuable lessons for all engaged in the fight to protect
people and nature from corporate greed.
