- 9:30 AM2h 30mWebinar/Panel Discussions — "Transitional Justice in Colombia: The Environment as-and-for Transitional Justice"Register here The EnPAx Transitional Justice Interest Group is hosting a webinar open to the public on transitional justice and the environment in the context of Colombia’s transitional justice process. This webinar is co-sponsored by the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies at the University of Notre Dame. The signing of the 2016 Colombian Peace Agreement formally ended the more than 50-year conflict between the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) and the Government of the Republic of Colombia. However, in the years since the signing of the agreement, environmental issues have arisen, highlighting new challenges and innovations for the practice and study of the field of environmental peacebuilding, transitional justice, and conservation. Understanding how the environment factors into transitioning to peace serves as a formal and informal vehicle; transitional justice is critical to peacebuilding. The case and contexts of Colombia offer a novel and still unfolding opportunity to explore questions and draw out lessons for facilitating sustainable peace. This webinar is comprised of two separate panels: Panel 1 (9:30 - 10:40 a.m.) Speakers include Angela María Amaya-Arias (director of research in the department of environmental law, Universidad Externado de Colombia, Colombia), Gloria Amparo Rodriguez (professor of law and director of the Public Law Research Group, Universidad del Rosario, Colombia and adjunct judge of the constitutional court of Colombia), and Josefina Echavarría Alvarez (professor of the practice, Keough School of Global Affairs at the University of Notre Dame, and director of the Peace Accords Matrix, a research initiative of the Keough School’s Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies) and Tatiana Menjura Roldán (researcher, Peace Accords Matrix’s Barometer Initiative in Colombia). Panel 2 (10:50 a.m. - noon ) Speakers include Maria Paula Prada Ramírez (former permanent advisor to the president of the Truth, Reconciliation and Non-Repetition Commission in Colombia and visiting research fellow at the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies), Juan Fernando Lucio (director of PASO Colombia, One Earth Future), and Natalia Jiménez Galindo (environmental peacebuilding consultant).

- 7:45 PM1h 25mFilm: "Secrets from Putumayo" (2020)In 1910, the British Consul General in Rio de Janeiro, Roger Casement, undertook an investigation into allegations of crimes against indigenous communities committed by the British-registered Peruvian Amazon Company. Secrets from Putumayo recounts the horrific treatment he uncovered there: an industrial-extractive system based on killings and slave labor in the midst of the Amazon rainforest. Casement was determined to bring awareness to the British of their own colonial atrocities by revealing the appalling human cost of the rubber industry. Blending passages from his journal with archival images, the film makes space for the Indigenous relatives of the survivors to share the oral stories passed down by the family members, who also recount current struggles for self-determination against today's multinational corporations, just as fixated on extracting the resources of the Amazon. Casement's pursuit of justice continued when he returned to his native Ireland where he became an active Irish nationalist, to be executed for treason during World War I by the British government.
