María Llanos del Corral: Radical Friends...

Greenpeace International
About this episode

María Llanos del Corral, a pioneer in community-driven development and the visionary behind the Eroles and La Bolina projects, shares her wealth of experience in fostering cooperative power through grassroots organising and groundbreaking project implementation. Listeners will discover the profound impact of radical friendship as a cornerstone of trust-building within projects aimed at social regeneration and repopulation. María delves into the imperative of challenging market-driven paradigms that dehumanise individuals, particularly migrants. Discover how La Bolina's initiatives are reshaping societal norms, challenging traditional power structures, and inspiring positive change in rural areas. Gain practical wisdom on overcoming fear, nurturing inclusive collaboration, and reclaiming ambition in the pursuit of a more equitable and sustainable future.


SystemShift comes from Greenpeace Nordic and is hosted by Greenpeace Sweden campaigner, Carl Schlyter, and produced by Alexia Fridén, with additional support from Zane Ford, Christian Aslund and Attila Kulcsár.
