La destrucción de bosques y ríos está socavando los medios de vida indígenas locales, y destruyendo tierras ancestrales. Entre 40 y 70 millones de personas que viven en zonas rurales de Indonesia dependen del acceso a tierras y recursos, por ejemplo el agua para beber y para el saneamiento, protegidos por leyes consuetudinarias.

Une action urgente est nécessaire pour mettre fin à la prise de contrôle sur des terres des peuples autochtones pour des projets de grande envergure dans des provinces où les forêts abondent comme le Kalimantan et la Papouasie en Indonésie. La destruction des forêts et des rivières sape les moyens de subsistance des Autochtones locaux, et détruit les terres ancestrales. Entre 40 et 70 millions de personnes des zones rurales d’Indonésie dépendent de l’accès aux terres et aux ressources, y compris pour l’eau potable et l’assainissement. Ces terres et ressources sont protégées par des lois coutumières.
