Global partners commit 2.5 billion dollars for Congo Basin
Germany, the EU, the World Bank and philanthropic partners like Bezos Earth Fund would be financing projects in the Congo Basin relating to sustainable management, biodiversity conservation and community resilience to the amount of USD 2.5 billion.
This commitment was taken, November 17, during the Congo Basin Day holding at the COP 30 rendezvous in Belem, Brazil.
COP 30 Belem, Brazil
GDA will be there !!!
At COP 30, GDA would strengthen advocacy and collaboration on climate justice, land rights, and forest protection by engaging directly in policy dialogues, side events, and civil society platforms.
The main focus of this GDA's legal analysis note is on the illegalities surrounding SOCAPALM's acquisition of land and the violent repression of the communities' civil rights.
The two experts involved first outline the history of the Edea plantation from the colonial period to the present day. Land titles were transferred from the Societes des Plantations Reunis (SPROA) to the Societes des Palmaraies de la Ferme Suisse in 1976, then publicly owned by SOCAPALM before being transferred to the privately owned SOCAPALLM held by SOCFIN.
