Continuing with the communications for September 21st, this time we would like to share with all of you a collection of videos that we have prepared together with GRAIN, on the impacts of large scale industrial oil palm plantations. The videos have been produced by several partners from around the world working against expansion of industrial oil palm plantations and they describe the impacts that local communities suffer when the expansion takes place on their territories.
The collection is aimed at providing information for grassroots organizations, movements and activists, particularly in Africa --where the expansion is more recent and taking place at alarming rates. The collection is intended to share information from both, countries within Africa that already have experience with oil palm plantations -like Liberia- and from countries --such as Indonesia-- with a long and sad history linked to the expansion of industrial oil palm plantations.
If you have additional videos that you would like to share, please feel free to send us an email.
