#Ug: Giving up isn't part of our options! The crackdown of Environment Human Rights Defenders is a true manifestation of shrinking civic space. Climate activists are now targeting the financiers of oil projects to remind them that no project should come at expense of citizens

In efforts to protect people’s land against oil projects ,we organized focused group discussions in Kikuube district to empower affected communities with legal knowledge to defend their land against oil developments. Communities indicated the increased land grabbing in the area.

💔 WATCH: Hoima oil refinery residents share their heartbreaking story ⏩3,500 women & 1,500 children displaced, not by war but an oil project. ⏩11 years later, no justice. This is what big oil calls development: profit over people! youtu.be/hZouBswsuVc?si… via YouTube

For a just energy transition to happen ,we need to embrace community’s views on the energy that is relevant & accessible for both domestic & productive use. Decentralized renewable energy projects that are socially & economically owned by grass-root communities is what we want.

In an exchange learning that we organized between communities affected by oil projects, one of the outstanding issue coming in is land grabbing! Communities say more people have come into their area to grab their land due to oil developments. We empowered them about land rights.

Engaging grassroot communities to build resilience and resistance against the EACOP project. The ongoing EACOP developments is not only a disaster to environment but also threatens human life. We call TotalEnergies to stop this project and invest in green economic sectors.
