Missing voices: The violent erasure of land and #environmental #defenders

September 2024

"This report and our campaign are dedicated to all those individuals, communities and organisations bravely taking a stand to defend human rights, their land, and our environment.

"Last year [2023], 196 people were murdered for doing this work.

"We also acknowledge that the names of many defenders who were killed last year may be missing, and we may never know how many more gave their lives to protect our planet. We honour their work too."
