.@PRC_Amb_Uganda, how do you justify the displacement of thousands and the destruction of biodiversity for EACOP? This project benefits only a few while harming so many. Time for real south-south development! #StopEACOP
@PRC_Amb_Uganda, EACOP is not a development project—it’s a debt trap for Uganda. @CNOOCUganda must listen to the demands of communities and withdraw support for this destructive pipeline. #StopEACOP
