AB The objective of this chapter is to analyse the relationship between extractivism, forced displacement, gender and resistance in Latin America and the Caribbean. Apart from this introduction, the text is divided into two parts. The first part explores the characteristics of extractivism and its ties to the migratory system and forced displacements in the region. The second part analyses gender impact and the role Latin American women play in the fight and resistance against extractivism, as well as the numerous pillars of sustainability of the life they promote. Finally, the conclusions drawn examine some of the challenges that the region faces within a context of renewed discourse about development and the promotion of worldwide green deals. On a methodological level, the chapter includes a revision of specialised literature, analysis of documents, and exploration of secondary data that include a study of 259 socio-environmental conflicts conducted by the International Relations and Global South Research Group (GRISUL) in 2018, based on the Global Atlas of Environmental Justice (EJATLAS) database.
