The Kichwa tribe in the Sarayaku region of the Amazon in Ecuador believe in the ‘living forest’, where humans, animals and plants live in harmony. They are fighting oil companies who want to exploit their ancestral land. A delegation of indigenous people are at the Paris COP21 climate conference to make sure their voices are heard. Can they win their battle?
Ask the UN to call upon President Rafael Correa to end the criminalization of indigenous leaders and guarantee due process for all.
The best way to stop oil development, dirty dams, deforestation and other harmful development is to defend indigenous rights.
