Update: The case related to the 26th August 2024 action has been dismissed for want of prosecution. This is an addition to various dismissals of similar cases which shows that Government of Uganda continues to use brutal arrests and detentions as a deliberate effort against EACOP critics

As the world marked the Earth day today, it’s a clarion call for a full divestment from fossil fuels amidst climate and systems collapse, multinational corporations like TotalEnergies should seize from investing in projects like the East African Crude Oil Pipeline. #stopeacop
