The Rights and Resources Initiative 347d ago

The film explores how the CLARIFI initiative has managed to halt the prospecting activities of forestry, mining, and oil companies. The development of these activities within this territory accelerate the degradation of the livelihoods of these communities, which largely depend on the abundance and diversity of natural resources. By relying on legal texts such as the 2011 Constitution and the law on the protection of Pygmy Indigenous Peoples, the lands of Bombwanza are now protected, ensuring the preservation of biodiversity and supporting local economies. This film is an inspiring testament to the power of local initiatives in nature conservation, highlighting the crucial importance of such actions to achieve the ambitious United Nations goal of conserving 30% of land, water, and seas by 2030.
