Our campaigner @LongoFiore in @newint details the shocking violence inflicted on tribal peoples by the "conservation" model that @WWF pursues. Highly relevant on #WorldWildlifeDay2020.

A Baka man describes beatings and forced evictions from Messok Dja - the @WWF project in Congo. This is #FortressConservation and you can stop it. 👉https://t.co/S7kU1NVr9P

Il 29 aprile 1961 nasceva il @WWF. Probabilmente, loro stanno festeggiando, a differenza dei Baka del Bacino del Congo. I Baka subiscono abusi da eco-guardie finanziate dal WWF – ascolta il messaggio di Odette.

#OTD in 1961, @WWF was founded. While they may be celebrating, the Baka in the Congo Basin are not. The Baka are facing horrific abuse by WWF-funded ecoguards – just listen to Odette. #BackingtheBaka #DecolonizeCONservation

"Nous prenons ces allégations très au sérieux." Le #WWF utilise cette réplique depuis des années et n’a rien fait. Les enquêtes au Royaume-Uni et en Allemagne auront-elles enfin un impact? #StopMessokDja #BackingtheBaka

Just a reminder of what the Baka people are facing right now in the Congo Basin #DecolonizeCONservation #StopMessokDja #WWFfundsAbuse
.@SenatorLeahy the @USFWS is funding human rights abuses in #MessokDja, where @WWF is creating a park without the consent of local communities. We can stop this! #BackingtheBaka https://t.co/00EbLBpJvz
People around the world are shocked, but @WWF @WWF_DG know full well that their work is killing indigenous people - the best conservationists. They have known for years. They have marched on. Will they stop now?

This is exactly the model of conservation that @WWF is now imposing in #MessokDja (Congo). But we will stop them! Join us: https://t.co/bSxfEhaHay #BackingtheBaka @WWFFrance @pcanfin @WWFitalia

This #WorldWildlifeDay, we’re calling for an end to colonial conservation. When will big orgs like @WWF stop funding human rights abuses and indigenous land theft, and start respecting indigenous knowledge?

@WWF_DG @FriendsofOcean @ThomsonFiji Wildlife is also the food that hunter-gatherers depend on for their nutrition, healthy diets and livelihood. But your Congo Basin projects are illegally evicting the #Baka tribe from their forest with violence and torture. #StopMessokDja #BackingTheBaka https://t.co/lFgNaRv2nJ
Hey @WWF! Stop supporting the creation of the illegal Messok Dja National Park in Congo. Turning local communities against you jeopardizes your goal of protecting the area’s wildlife. You must listen to the Baka people and respect their human rights #DecolonizeCONservation

Talking to great group of public interest lawyers and students at #PIELC at U of Oregon about the need to #decolonize conservation and pressure @WWF to stop funding parks like #MessokDja that violate the rights of the indigenous and tribal peoples living there #BackingtheBaka
On #WorldWildlifeDay, let’s not forget the crucial role indigenous peoples play in defending the environment. In the Congo, the Baka have carefully managed their forests for millennia, yet now face arrest and torture in the name of conservation.
