Pamela Rayane Fernandes

Pamela Rayane Fernandes is a Brazilian woman who became a symbol of the tragic human cost of the 2015 collapse of a toxic waste dam in Minas Gerais, Brazil, which resulted in the loss of her five-year-old daughter and left her fighting for justice against the mining company BHP. Recently, she was present at the conclusion of a lengthy trial in London, where she expressed her hope for accountability and compensation for the thousands affected by the disaster.
