The dangers of standing up for human rights and the environment in Honduras
Three activists from Honduras will go to court tomorrow (September 20) on trumped-up charges brought by the government.
The false charges are a government response to their organization’s peaceful efforts to defend community lands, indigenous knowledge, and the local ecosystem. The Honduran government has often proven sensitive to international pressure. Let’s put the pressure on again. Please sign and SHARE this petition far and wide!
