About this listen
Deforestation is intrinsically linked to human rights abuses. The agricultural expansion that drives over 90% of the destruction also impacts the 1.6 billion people who rely on tropical forests for their lives and livelihoods.
This podcast covers the launch of the latest Forest 500 human rights briefing called: The human rights blindspot on deforestation action. The latest data shows just 1% of the companies most exposed to deforestation have a policy that covers all of the human rights aspects that their commodities are exposed to.
The podcast focuses on free, prior and informed consent - or FPIC - one of the key human rights linked to deforestation.
You'll hear from:
- Yula Rocha - Indigenous and Climate Projects Manager, People’s Palace Projects
- Adriana Ramos - Public Policies specialist at Instituto Socioambiental (ISA)
- Cathal Doyle - Co-ordinator, Legal and Human Rights Programme, Forest Peoples Programme
- Emma Thomson, Forest 500 and Tracking Lead, Global Canopy
- Giulia Bondi, EU Senior Campaigner, Global Witness
