Concerns the human rights situation of Indigenous Peoples in Indonesia. These include the lack of formal recognition of Indigenous Peoples; the erosion of their rights under the revised Special Autonomy Law in West Papua; the revival of the transmigration policy and its detrimental impact on cultural integrity; and the adverse effects of National Strategic Projects, extractive industries, and green energy initiatives on Indigenous lands and livelihoods. We also highlight specific cases, such as the expansion of nickel mining in Kabaena and its impact on the Bajau Indigenous Peoples and the dispossession and threats faced by the Cek Bocek Indigenous Peoples in Sumbawa. We have also received allegations of the exclusion of Indigenous communities from conservation efforts, affecting their territories, lands and resources. Additional concerns include the criminalization of Indigenous land defenders and the existential threats faced by Indigenous Peoples in isolation.Alleged victims: 3 More details... | |

Information received concerning the actual and potential adverse human rights impacts of a critical mineral sands development project in South-West Madagascar – the Base Toliara Project – operated by Base Resources, owned by United States-based Energy Fuels Inc. Energy Fuels’ main investors BlackRock Inc., Alps Advisors Inc., both based in the United States, and Mirae Asset Global Investments, based in the Republic of Korea. The Base Toliara Project would encroach on the lands of communities, and as a result those communities members may loose their lands and livelihoods as they fully depend on these lands and natural resources. The project would also pose severe environmental threats that impact local livelihoods and health. Public protests from local communities against the project have been reportedly violently suppressed, resulting this year in the killing of three people on 23 March 2025 and the detention of twenty others from March to May 2025.Alleged victims: 1 More details... | |

Informations reçues concernant les effets négatifs réels et potentiels sur les droits humains d'un projet d'exploitation de sables minéraux critiques dans le sud-ouest de Madagascar, le projet Base Toliara, exploité par Base Resources, propriété de la société américaine Energy Fuels Inc. Les principaux investisseurs d’Energy Fuels sont BlackRock Inc. et Alps Advisors Inc., tous deux basés aux États-Unis, ainsi que Mirae Asset Global Investments, basé en République de Corée. Le projet Base Toliara empiéterait sur les terres des communautés, qui risqueraient ainsi de perdre leurs terres et leurs moyens de subsistance. Le projet présenterait également de graves menaces environnementales qui auraient des répercussions sur les moyens de subsistance et la santé de la population locale. Les manifestations publiques des communautés locales contre le projet auraient été violemment réprimées, entraînant cette année la mort de trois personnes le 23 mars 2025 et la détention de vingt autres entre mars et mai 2025.Alleged victims: 1 More details... | |

Information received concerning the Crime and Policing Bill (hereafter, the “Bill”). Introduced to the House of Commons on 25 February 2025, the Bill is currently at the Commons Report stage. We are concerned that, if passed, clauses 108 to 110 may impose inordinate and substantial restrictions on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association and to freedom of expression. We are especially concerned that, if passed, these provisions may deepen the risk of misuse of surveillance technologies, while giving rise to chilling effects undermining the exercise of the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association and to freedom of expression. Furthermore, we are specifically concerned about the impact of the bill could have on human rights defenders and their legitimate work on a range of issues including climate change and the environment.

Information received concerning the draft Bill PL 2159/2021 which provides for environmental licenses, that has been approved by the Federal Senate on 21 May 2025 and under imminent consideration in the Chamber of Deputies. In this regard, we express our deepest concern regarding the impact this draft legislation, if adopted, will have on the enjoyment of human rights, including the right to a clean, healthy and sustainable environment; the rights to life and health, and the rights of Indigenous Peoples and Quilombola communities, particularly considering heightened risks for human rights in the context of climate change as dramatic climate events have already taken lives and led to massive loss and damage in Brazil. In addition, it would contravene the current measures and commitments taken by your Excellency’s Government to set out clear expectations for businesses regarding their responsibility to respect human rights, as well as regarding environmental and climate action.

Information received updated concerning allegations of the severe environmental, climate and human rights impacts as well as a systematic pattern of oppression and human rights violations against environmental human rights defenders in Uganda in relation with the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) and the Tilenga and Kingfisher Projects. According to the information received these include at least 129 alleged arrests and detentions; the incommunicado detentions and ill-treatment of multiple environmental human rights defenders, including recurrent arrests and detentions; and forced disappearances; the forced eviction of more than 42 communities; and widespread judicial harassment. These attacks and threats appear to be directly related to the legitimate human rights activities of the environmental human rights defenders, especially their defence of the right to a clean, healthy and sustainable environment.

Information received concerning the threat of forced evictions of 14 Isan minority members (9 women, 5 men), who are also land-right defenders, from their lands and homes in the Sab Wai village, situated in the Sai Thong National Park, under forest conservation policies and legislation. The eviction orders have been issued in the context of the Government’s climate change mitigation action without the provision of alternative accommodation and productive land, nor adequate compensation. Allegedly, the national strategy to address the adverse effects of climate change pursues “false solutions” that are resulting in practice in the criminalization and impoverishment of poor small-scale farmers who depend on forests for their livelihoods, while the need to reform the energy sector is neglected.Alleged victims: 1 More details... |

Información recibida en relación con la crisis humanitaria y ambiental que padece el pueblo Raizal de las islas de Vieja Providencia y Santa Catalina, pertenecientes al Archipiélago de San Andrés, Providencia y Santa Catalina, tras el paso de los huracanes Eta e Iota en noviembre de 2020. Casi dos años después del paso y daños causados por los huracanes, la población de la isla de 5000 personas, de la cual 4500 indígenas Raizales, sigue necesitando urgentemente ayuda para el restablecimiento de todas sus necesidades básicas afectadas, como: alojamiento, atención sanitaria, agua, saneamiento y alimentos. Los esfuerzos de reconstrucción del Gobierno, se están llevando a cabo sin tomar en cuenta las aspiraciones y las recomendaciones del pueblo raizal y de sus autoridades, ignorando su forma de vida y sus costumbres, así como el clima de las islas. Debido a la insuficiente adecuación de las nuevas viviendas a las condiciones climáticas de las islas, la situación queda crítica y conlleva el riesgo que las personas interesadas se desplacen de nuevo y se queden sin hogar cuando golpee el próximo huracán. Además, la prioridad acordada a las necesidades militares y de desarrollo económico sobre la satisfacción de las necesidades inmediatas de la población en términos de vivienda, alimentos, agua potable y saneamiento, y un medio ambiente limpio, significa una presión importante sobre el espacio vital de los Raizales que afecta negativamente su autodeterminación, sus derechos culturales y su derecho al desarrollo, con graves repercusiones sobre su sobrevivencia en tanto que pueblo.Alleged victims: 4501 More details... |
