A another video about the Las Pavas Case ( in spanish)




The displacement of the community of Las Pavas continues. Now, The Body Shop and Daabon are sending a "independent" commission to investigate the situation. But get this. This "independent" is being payed for by Daabon, the company that displaced the community. Obviously, this is not a independent commission though the Body Shop and Daabon say it is. The group in charge of the delegation is Proforest, which according to their website have no training in Human Rights. Rather, they focus on the sustainable agriculture. which is to say, is the deforestation and palm planted on the communities land is environmentally friendly, not if daabon is violating human rights.

You are able to help! Write an Urgent Action letter to the Daabon Company!
the information is here on the CPT website!
