The NUCLEAR-FREE FUTURE AWARDS
Gabriela Tsukamoto and Movimento Urânio em Nisa Não, Portugal
Category Resistance – 2012
Mayor Gabriela Tsukamoto and the organisation MUNN (Movimento Urânio em Nisa Não) could succeed in sparing her home community of Nisa in Portugal the fate of so many uranium mining areas. Their resistance finds many comrades-in-arms because uranium was mined in the area until 1991 and former workers with cancer are still fighting for compensation.
