Summary This episode delves into the complexities of protesting in countries where drug trafficking significantly impacts governance and civil liberties, as Honduras and Ecuador. In a number of countries across Latin America, the entanglement of political instability and narcotic economies often results in precarious conditions for activists. States embroiled in battles against drug cartels face a dual challenge: maintaining public order and respecting the right to protest. Allegations of corruption at the highest levels can intensify public outcry, as seen when officials are implicated in drug and arms trafficking. So, how are citizens managing to protest amidst drug cartel state circumstances in Honduras and Ecuador? Guests Silvana Tapia, lawyer, doctor in socio-legal studies at the University of Birmingham. Her current project employs a feminist, anti-colonial, socio-legal approach. Nohelia Núñez, lawyer from Honduras who works with several women led organizations in the country as CLADEM.

Protesting is particularly difficult if you live in a country where your right to protest is limited in your actions and opinions. The authorities and governments of closed or repressed countries do everything in their power to curtail the right of its citizens to Freedom of Peaceful Assembly: internet shutdowns, restrictive legislation, violence, and unfair arrests. So how do people living in these repressed spaces go about mobilising and protesting? In this episode, Nadim Nashif, the founder and executive director of 7amleh , the Arab Centre for Social Media Advancement, explains how Palestinians have developed creative forms of digital protests. Then, one of the organisers of the national strike in Colombia (el Paro Nacional), Sandra Sierra, shares her emotional and important experiences of protesting under pressure.
