Our @hrw World Report has just been released and features a chapter on the major human rights developments in 2021 in #PNG. Sadly, attacks on women and girls rights feature prominently! As does #COVID19 and threats to land and #environmental rights. https://t.co/6jFMOGRdok

"Millions of Sepiks, from ancient times to date have valued the river as an abundant food source. It’s demise for temporary monetary gain, will no doubt be one of the biggest disasters of this generation".
