#Indigenous Baka representatives of communities living in the #MessokDja area present their ideas and concerns about the management of their customary #forest to state authorities and local CSOs at a workshop organised by FPP partner APETDS.
@florikafink How about a New Beginning in #MessokDja, where EC- @WWF -backed rangers keep abusing the Baka, the best guardians of the rainforest? Protect human diversity if you want to save biodiversity! https://t.co/S7kU1NVr9P
Months ago the @UNDP published a shocking report about what @WWF-funded rangers are doing to local people in #MessokDja. We and the Baka are still waiting for @ASteiner's response: will you stop this illegal project? https://t.co/teVmslBj2S
¿Te suena #MessokDja?
Es una región de la selva tropical de la cuenca del Congo con una biodiversidad especialmente rica: la tierra ancestral del pueblo baka, que gestiona y cuida el bosque desde tiempos inmemoriales. Ellos son sus mejores guardianes.

"...@UNDP investigators found that the #Baka were not consulted about the project & suffered extreme #violence at the hands of #ecoguards, who also exclude them from the #forests they depend on for #food & #medicines to survive." #MessokDja #CongoBasin #conservation @WWF
"[Eco-guards] see Baka as animals, they don’t see us as humans": a Baka man from the Congo Basin
Park rangers too often act as the brutal enforcers of a conservation ethos that views local people as enemies.

How a massive international campaign forced the European Commission to suspend its funding of @WWF's disastrous #MessokDja project - with @Survival's @LongoFiore

Great article in El País by @Lola_Hierro on EU suspending funds to @WWF's #MessokDja project. The abuses & persecution got too much even for the project's committed funders to stomach...

Very good Spanish article from @Lola_Hierro about the EU's suspension of funds to @WWF's #MessokDja protected area.
The project is being completed thanks to human rights abuses against the local #Indigenous Baka.

Important article by @LaurenceCaramel on how @WWF's constant abuses against the Baka forced the EU to suspend its funding of their flagship #MessokDja project.
A massive victory for the Baka & @Survival supporters worldwide. 💪💪

EU grants for @WWF's #MessokDja national park in the Congo have been suspended in light of human rights abuses and a lack of #Indigenous consent.
It is good news for the local Baka, and a big step forward in the fight to #DecolonizeCONservation.
Full update from us @Survival 👇
.@WWF's plan to build #MessokDja park without the consent of the #Indigenous Baka has been dealt a major blow - as @Survival lobbying has seen the EU suspend its funding of the project.
But the war is not won. We will keep up the fight.

EU has suspended funding for #MessokDja and pledges a review of #HumanRights across all its funded projects in the region after it. Good piece by @tombwarren @BuzzFeedNews EU Found “Shortcomings” In WWF’s Treatment Of Indigenous People https://t.co/Huqrg4I0SE
One year ago @WWF was ready to steal more Baka land without their consent and create a new national park in Congo #MessokDja. Today thanks to the extraordinary fight of local&tribal peoples and @survival they have to pretend community involvement. https://t.co/UAAvQcSCVn
Dutch lottery @PostcodeLoterij funds @WWF abusing Baka rights, #MessokDja, Congo, & is complicit in gross & sustained #HumanRightsViolations. Appalling #greenwashing violating Dutch law (ILO 169). RT if you care

This Baka woman’s husband was imprisoned by #EcoGuards in #MessokDja on false accusations of poaching. He was brutally assaulted by other prisoners, and died after release. This is the reality of @WWF ‘conservation’. #WWFfundsabuse

Il @WWF è sorpreso della dimensione degli abusi in #MessokDja? Peccato che @katiejmbaker e @TomBWarren abbiano un documento interno che prova che il @WWF_DG sapeva da almeno due anni!
.@WWF are surprised at the scale of abuse in #MessokDja. There’s obviously no way they could have known about it. So what a shame it is that @katiejmbaker and @TomBWarren have an internal document proving that @WWF_DG has known for at least two years.

.@WWF don’t listen to #Indigenous peoples. But you can.
“If they [WWF funded #EcoGuards] see us, they just beat us with machetes”.
