WINNIPEG, MARCH 30, 2017 — The world premiere of the film “Our Tomorrows, Today: Wahbung 1971” (Produced by MFNERC: Nicole Magne and David Robertson) took place at the Eckhardt Gramatte Hall at the University of Winnipeg. A number of witnesses to and writers of the original Wahbung 1971 document, commissioned and released by then Manitoba Indian Brotherhood Grand Chief Dave Courchene Sr. in 1971, were in the film or in attendance at the premiere, including some of the Women of Wahbung – Chief Jean Folster, Janet Fontaine, Verna Kirkness and Jocelyn Bruyere; and Dave Courchene Jr., son of the late Grand Chief Dave Courchene Sr. In the early 1970s, the First Nations people of Manitoba came together to reject Pierre Trudeau’s controversial White Paper written in 1969. From this historic movement came an influential position paper known as Wahbung, Our Tomorrows. This short documentary explores the history of Wahbung, Our Tomorrows, and shows how it was a catalyst for First Nations peoples’ right to self-determination.

45% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from how we make and use products like buildings, cars and clothes, and how we produce food. There needs to be a fundamental shift in the global approach to tackling climate change and the circular economy can play an essential role. In this conversation, the Foundation's Joss Bleriot and Per Klevnas from Material Economics discuss why the transition to renewable energy is only part of the picture in the conversation about what we need to do to mitigate climate change. Find out more about the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's latest report on the role the circular economy can play in tackling climate change and what this means for the strategies of countries and companies around the world. ------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for watching this video.

Multistreaming with https://restream.io/?ref=nVVND The European Union efforts to accelerate the transition towards a circular economy across its members will inevitably have consequences outside of Europe. Will international trade act as a springboard for globalising a circular economy? Are certain circular economy practices, such as remanufacturing, currently hindered by a lack of access to certain markets? To discuss the far-reaching implications, we will have the Foundation’s Executive Lead of the International Institutions & Governments, Jocelyn Bleriot and Marianne Kettunen, the Head of Global Challenges and Sustainable Development Goals Programme at Institute for European Environmental Policy (IEEP). During this session, they will draw upon the 2019 report produced by the IEEP.
