Victory for Indigenous Peoples of Ucayali against oil extraction on their ancestral lands in Block 200

18 May 2022
Indigenous peoples of the Ucayali region have secured a victory against oil and gas extraction in Block 200. After long years of struggle against its imposition and in the face of a very poor consultation process with serious violations of Indigenous rights, they succeeded in getting CEPSA Peru to withdraw from the operation. The Indigenous Peoples will remain vigilant and will fight for the cancellation of the oil block.
