MAB organizes a solidarity campaign so that families affected by the dam failure can get emergency help with basic items such as food, water, and hygiene kits

The Dam is comparable to the Mariana´s Dam in proportion to the amount of mineral exploration; the population reports pollution of the Tromaí River in the west of the state

The movement does not accept reduced values, lack of participation in the negotiations and is considering legal action before the Federal Supreme Court (STF) to guarantee full reparation to those affected in the Paraopeba river basin

Due to the pandemic, actions were carried out with social distancing, in open places and with participants wearing masks

The company advertises that it is solving the problems of those affected, when in fact it is gaining time to undermine the people’s fighting capacity and get Brumadinho out of the news.

In 2020, Brazil did not sow rights; on the contrary, the country took lives, especially the lives of women, black and poor lives, all with a lot of violence and impunity

The Movement of People Affected by Dams – MAB organizes the agenda of struggles that marks two years of Vale’s Crime in Brumadinho – “There’s only Justice with struggle and organization”

We are the victims of a barbaric crime that is far from a correct solution, but we are also people who struggle and are willing to fight and put life above profit
