This intervention strives to increase the capacity and scale of the Right to Say No (R2SN) movement across Southern Africa, enabling its members and connected communities to leverage mobilisation, knowledge, and legislation towards overcoming extractivism as a model of development and building a truly just transition from below. In doing so, it will contribute to communities in Southern Africa reclaiming sovereignty over their own development path. The intervention aims to amplify and strengthen the R2SN movement in its capacity to mobilise and resist new and existing forms of extractivism, and broaden a strong solidarity network across the region. It also strives to equip the R2SN movement with the knowledge base necessary to advocate for sustainable peoples’ alternatives to extractivism. Finally, the intervention aims to strengthen the capacity of the R2SN movement to influence policy processes at national, regional and global levels.
