Report Launch “Our Determination Outweighs Our Fear”: Indigenous peoples and <\/em>campesino communities fighting for land and territory<\/em><\/h3>\n

Environmental and land defenders are at the frontline of the climate crisis, risking everything to stand up to corporate greed, often in the face of state complicity, threats of violence and widespread criminalisation.<\/p>\n

Along with Peace Brigades International UK, Bufete Jur\u00eddico Justicia para los Pueblos, and Doughty Street Chambers, we invite you to an exclusive reception and launch of a significant new report by an Independent Delegation of International Lawyers, exposing grave violations against Indigenous peoples and campesino<\/em> communities in Honduras.<\/p>\n

Join us to hear directly from:<\/p>\n

– Kenia Oliva:<\/strong> Human rights lawyer and Co-Founder of the Bufete Justicia para los Pueblos
\n– Dunia Mahel\u00ed Sanchez:<\/strong> Indigenous Lenca human rights defender and member of COPINH
\n– Camila Zapata Besso:<\/strong> Barrister at Doughty Street Chambers
\n– Daniel Cerqueira:<\/strong> Director of Climate Justice & Human Rights Program at the Due Process of Law Foundation (DPLF)<\/p>\n

This event will examine the findings of the report, from the criminalisation of defenders to inadequate state intervention and weak legal frameworks, and invite discussion on steps the international community can take to strengthen accountability and protection frameworks for Indigenous and campesino<\/em> human rights defenders and communities.<\/p>\n

Date: Thursday 30, April 2026<\/strong>
\nTime: 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm (GMT+0)\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a hybrid event: Register here<\/a><\/strong> to join us in person or via Zoom.<\/p>\n
