This was in the 1990s, early 2000s! Returning to large-scale financing of mining with corporate partners revives a vintage approach development economics.

Organizations like @ciel.org and @brettonwoodsproject.org succeeded in getting the World Bank Group to withdraw from funding coal and oil. A number of safeguards were introduced for mining and minerals - initiatives to ward off the worst consequences of mining projects.

back to the 1980s when PPPs were the recipe for development, trying to mobilize capital for extractive projects that were thought to achieve "take-off" but contributed to devastation, mass involuntary resettlement & climate change. This was the main focus of 20+ years of activism and mass movements

Viel wurde diskutiert über Proteste und ihre teils hasserfüllten Slogans. Was waren die Anliegen und Probleme der Teilnehmenden? Wir deuten die Proteste als umkämpfte Reaktion auf landwirtschaftlichen Transformationsdruck und beleuchten die Ursprünge, Repertoires und politische Artikulationsformen.

I saw posters vs Hamas but can only speculate about broader views (my speculation: its overwhelmingly despised). We could have asked "who is responsible" but that's a too complicated question for a survey design imo. Agreed it could've gotten more notice but hard to evade social desirability issues
