Divestment is a powerful tool being used around the world to put pressure on the companies and governments driving damage to people and planet.

Municipal Divestment has a strong history of moving our money out of humanitarian and environmental crises and holding governments accountable for breaches in human rights law. Getting your city to shift funds away from unethical systems sends a clear message about what we value as a society. Hear 3 stories of successful city divestment campaigns across the country that took a stand against companies and governments complicit in the climate crisis, the threat of nuclear war, and the genocide in Palestine. Examine where these campaigns intersected, the lessons we learned, and be encouraged by how we can come together to build a strong and focused message of institutional pressure to protect people and the planet.

Learn from these campaigns and from a panel of divestment-oriented organizations with expert resources, tools and support on how to realize municipal divestment campaigns in your area.
