Both ENDS
De Interamerican Development Bank (IDB) heeft een unieke beslissing genomen: ze trekt zich terug uit de bouw van 2 omstreden dammen in Ixquisis, Guatemala. Both ENDS steunde partner AIDA al jaren in de strijd tegen deze dammen. Tamara Mohr en Pieter Jansen leggen uit waarom deze beslissing zo bijzonder is.
Together with 29 other CSO's, we've submitted our comments and recommendations in the Public Consultation on the AfDB Integrated Safeguards System. These include that the Bank should prioritize community-led development and human rights-based approaches; protect natural resources and tackles environmental and climate crises; raise the bar on access to information, transparency and accountability; facilitate participatory processes in policies, programmes and projects; and end inequality, poverty, and the cutback and privatization of vital services.
