The Brazilian Marcha das Margaridas, a national protest march led by women’s organizations within rural unions, in alliance with other movements, has brought between 20,000 and 100,000 women to Brasilia six times since 2000. The Margaridas have worked on a political agenda for broad political and social transformations. Environmental issues have been always present in their struggles and demands and, more recently, climate change. Based on our long-standing research with the Marcha das Margaridas in Brazil, we address how they have framed climate change and climate politics within their broader agrarian environmental struggles?

The use and maintenance of minority languages are strongly conditioned by the context. Among minority languages, the most unknown are the heritage languages, which require specific techniques for their linguistic and social study in different contexts.
The aim of the workshop is to critically discuss the different forms of cultural heritage making regarding language and identity. Theoretical and methodological tools will be offered to analyze the processes of language heritagization in different contexts: national identity, minoritized regional languages, migration and the so-called heritage languages. The discussion of selected case studies from Ibero-America will provide a critical examination of the relationships between folklorization, commodification, identity, authenticity and community building.
