Anglo-America in #SouthAfrica: a History of Abuses and Violations.

Apartheid allowed @AngloAmerican to make profit off the back of a massively exploited working class. Testimonies shows that they hasn't changed some of their practices.

This week La Via Campesina joins @StopTNCimpunity campaign in Geneva at the intersessional negotiations for a #BindingTreaty to hold transnational corporations accountable for their human rights violations.

[CALS @CALS_ZA]

@ChristopherGvrs @LHR_SA @macua_sa @key_kelo @AIDC_RSA @StopCorpPower @AriScher @OpenSecretsZA Are there companies that support the #BindingTreaty process?

There has been push back from corporations even on voluntary due diligence obligations. Corporations make ESG commitments instead – we see energy companies painting crèches instead of reducing their carbon emissions

⚡️The 10th session of the #BindingTreaty negotiations have now officially closed!

For 31 years, @udapt_oficial has fought what is now @Chevron for poisoning the Amazon, destroying their land, lives and bodies.

Their struggle is a testament to the need for a #BindingTreaty!

A reminder on the last day of negotiations: This struggle goes well beyond the UN

[Dismantle Corp Power @StopTNCimpunity]

We took the streets of Geneva today for a #ToxicTour with the Swiss Coalition against @Glencore, showing how @BlackRock, @jpmorgan, and @UBS are deeply intertwined in Glencore’s global web of #HumanRights violations

Letícia Paranhos @foeint closes out today's session at the #BindingTreaty

"Human rights violators shouldn't have a say in how they're regulated and held accountable. To allow corporations to be represented here is to allow the fox to plan the security system of the henhouse."

[Friends of the Earth International @FoEint]

"Only by centering and focusing on the communities affected by corporate crimes, and with sufficient resources, can we secure reparations and restore justice through the #BindingTreaty"

Carmen Blanco @foeeurope

[Dismantle Corp Power @StopTNCimpunity]

Corporations waltz into the #BindingTreaty negotiations under the guise of civil society as if they were the same as the communities they threaten and k*ll.

Business associations are TNC Lobbies. Let's call them what they are: the voice of corporate crime

[Dismantle Corp Power @StopTNCimpunity]

"Only corporations violating human rights need to be afraid, and they SHOULD be afraid. While they count the profits, the communities count the dead."

- Juliana Rodrigues de Senna @TNInstitute

[Dismantle Corp Power @StopTNCimpunity]

The threat of transnational corporations to the #BindingTreaty is CLEAR

The TNC Lobby tries to influence negotiations while civil society, affected communities and social movements are marginalised

We will be heard. TNC Lobby, your days at the #BindingTreaty are numbered

[Friends of the Earth International @FoEint]

“Corporations are profiting from conflict, occupation, colonisation, pollution and more. This is the brutal reality the Global South faces, speaking to the urgency of regulating and sanctioning transnational corporations that violate human rights."

Letícia Paranhos @FoEint

[Dismantle Corp Power @StopTNCimpunity]

Don't be shy @iccwbo @ioevoice, let's call you by your actual name: TNC Lobby! Here to delay, derail and dodge accountability for corporate #HumanRights violations

Kick transnational corporations out of the #BindingTreaty negotiations!

Do you want us to show you the door?👋

"Meaningful consultations aren't enough to guarantee the respect for the right to participation of affected populations so these meaningful consultations need to also be mandatory in the #BindingTreaty."
