Frontline Tonga voices against Deep Sea Mining.
In 2014, Tonga people had little warning they were about to join the frontlines of deep sea mining.
Apparently lobbied by overseas investors, the government of Tonga passed a law enabling deep sea mining exploration without full public consultation.
Since then, civil society groups in Tonga have partnered with regional groups to engage the public, seek their feedback - and take action on it.
In this webinar, participants see the premiere of the Tonga chapter of the documentary series, Voices from the Last Frontier.
