RESOURCES
There are several resources that we have used in the campaign that we hope can help you in joining the fight against the gas industry in Mozambique.
Feel free to share, print out, and use in your work, research and activism, and creating solidarity and awareness wherever you are
REPORTS / PUBLICATIONS
Here are a selection of reports written by partners in the Say No to Gas! Campaign, and others we believe provide intensive and honest information and analysis of the gas industry in Mozambique. Some give testimonies of affected communities, others detangle the complex economic and financial web the industry has created.

WEBINARS
Members of the campaign regularly take part in webinars where we share invaluable and up-to-date information from the ground, political dynamics and the industry with a Mozambican and wider international audience, ranging from activists and civil society in the areas of fossil fuels, food sovereignty, militarisation, health and economics, to economists, artists, politicians, academics and the general interested public.
These are some of the most recent webinars spanning different themes and countries.
LETTERS
We write letters to decision makers, financiers, companies and governments. Some of these make demands, some ask for information and some explain why the gas industry in Mozambique is a terrible industry to get support. We sometimes receive responses, and sometimes they are followed up with meetings. Other times, when they blatantly refuse to respond, we have had to take the issue to the media or to parliament.
There are instances when the responses are informative, some when they are vague, and times when they are downright rude, like the response from ExxonMobil you can see here.
