A documentary by @thorneureiter + @antloewenstein that goes inside Afghanistan, Haiti & Papua New Guinea to reveal a dark side of moneymakers & aid exploiters.
The issues in our film remain sadly relevant from #Haiti to #Afghanistan to #PapuaNewGuinea. The film is now available to watch from (anywhere?) in the world. See https://t.co/MUYl6PbF5t + https://t.co/wp9fxEnimq
Back in 2015, I visited #Haiti to work on my @DisasterCapFilm and especially the #Clinton-backed industrial park; locals making clothes for the US market and being paid little $. Important story by @karlazabs that details how it’s all gone wrong https://t.co/xUZTl3PJ3e
Assassination of #Haitian President is worrying sign of increasing chaos in the US-backed dictatorship. #Haiti deserves freedom from violence and #Washington, long seeing it as a client state. I investigated this in my @DisasterCapFilm https://t.co/gFftHdPNQ9

This is big and important news and vital to hold @riotinto to account. Having spent years investigating this issue, in my book Disaster Capitalism and @DisasterCapFilm, including time with now PNG MP Theonila Roka Matbob, bravo @Jubilee_AU @rightsagenda etc pushing for justice
In our @DisasterCapFilm film, Theonila Roka Matbob is an inspiring young woman from #Bougainville pushing for justice. She’s just been elected to parliament, a rare victory for women there. Bravo https://t.co/ZWMyOclnuY

The fifth presidential vote in Bougainville is shaping as the most open ever.
It is also seen as a vitally important election because the new president will be leading negotiations on last year's referendum on independence from Papua New Guinea.

A new generation of Afghan women is moving to take up public and leadership roles.
The price is a daily barrage of abuse, and the fear that -- even before any power-sharing with Taliban -- the gains have remained too few, too shallow, and too fragile.
