Currently a critical situation in Paniai Region where the #Indonesian military have displaced large numbers of refugees.

"Indigenous peoples have been displaced from more than a million hectares of cleared rainforest to make way for transmigrants. Forest dwellers have been expelled to malaria-infested lower altitudes. Their rights are annulled by law."

“In #Indonesia & #Malaysia’s media, people can’t distinguish #fact from #fiction on #palmoil. A positive narrative about Dayaks & #palmoil is #greenwashing. This is NOT the lived reality for #Dayak people” ~writes Dr Setia Budhi, Dayak Ethnographer

Te reo Māori inspires Native American to save her own Indigenous language from extinction

#SavingCarbonSinks: Ecuadorian social #movements have bypassed pro-extractivist #politicians with a national #referendum to keep #oil from Block 43 also known as “Yasuní ITT,” a concession in the deepest part of the Amazonian protected Yasuní National #Forest, in the ground. While movements around the world have successfully achieved #mining moratoria, this is an important new strategy for #environmental and #Indigenous #rights activists.
