1/ Mi Nemonte Nenquimo, soy una mujer Waorani, Amazonia del Ecuador. Gracias a la selva vivimos conexion y armonia con la naturaleza y queremos defenderla. Para eso, quiero compartir mi conocimiento
2/ Pero, con la "civilizacion", en la Amazonia vivimos una amenaza grande. La extraccion del petroleo causa la destruccion de nuestro territorio y si yo resisto y comparto mi conocimiento es para mi pueblo pero tambiΓ©n para el mundo. Soy una mujer que resiste, una mujer guardiana
3/ La tierra madre no nos ha dado vida y naturaleza solo a nosotros los pueblos indigenas pero a todos!
4/ @IMariashikongo, frontline defender for #SaveTheOkavangoDelta: the beginning of oil exploration of the Okavango Basin got me back to my past: the repetition of colonialism again and the white man telling us what to do.
5/ @IMariashikongo: I am here because I am tired of the narrative that Western countries imposes on us! The Global South built the Global North and knows are to survive and develop. When are we going to talk about justice for all the Global South and indigenous nations instead?
6/ Anoshka Violeta Irey Cameno, indigenous leader of the Peruvian Amazon, council member of FENAMAD, a federation representing the 37 indigenous communities of the Madre de Dios river basin that protects the environment and human rights
7/ Mi pueblo, Harabukt, se encuentra en peligro frente a la explotacion petrolera del lote 66 en Peru. El estado, en lugar de protegernos a nosotros, ha puesto policia para proteger la empresa. Nos quieren desaparecer pero jamas vamos a desaparecer, por mas petroleo que quieranπͺπ½
8/ Anoshka: "We don't need that development but solutions to protect our territories."
