‘Light for everyone': Indigenous youth mount a solar-powered resistance


Tosepan Titataniske, an indigenous cooperative in Mexico's Sierra Norte mountains, emphasizes local control at the heart of solar programs. Over the last four decades, the organization has incorporated 410 community-level cooperatives that serve some 60,000 members, training people to install solar and establishing agricultural cooperatives. With organization, indigenous communities have been able to fight inequitable development projects and make significant gains.
