Four-year anniversary of Brumadinho dam Collapse

January 25, 2023

It has now been four years since the Brumadinho dam collapse in Brazil, and justice has still not been served.

The disaster caused the deaths of 272 people and was the second most significant humanitarian and environmental disaster in Brazil in less than five years.

Part of our team was present at the ceremonies in honour of the victims of the Brumadinho tragedy.

Together with those affected by the disaster, members of civil society, and relatives of the victims, we observed a moment of silence for all those who died.

Pogust Goodhead is working tirelessly on behalf of over 1,000 clients, fighting back against German company TÜV SÜD, who classified the dam as safe before the disaster took place.

There is still hope.
