The climate movement is coalescing around a powerful campaigning tool which has proved decisive in previous struggles in history: economic divestment. What does this campaign look like on the ground in the UK? What have the wins been so far? What creative direct action tactics are being employed? How does campaign for a cultural boycott fit in? And can the campaign succeed where the UN talks have failed?

Our guests in this fourth and final show in this mini-series are:

• Danielle Paffard UK divestment campaigner with 350.org
• Miriam Wilson Fossil Free campaign coordinator at People and Planet
• Jyotsna Ram Co-founder Community Reinvest
• Mel Evans art-activist with Liberate Tate and author of the forthcoming Artwash – Big Oil and the Arts

Notes and references: to follow shortly.
