Aniversario del asesinato de Berta Cáceres

Friends of the Earth International commemorates the anniversary of the murder of Lenca activist Berta Cáceres, linking her struggle against mega-dams in Honduras to a broader global fight against capitalist and patriarchal systems. The organization denounces the systemic violence, persecution, and impunity faced by indigenous women and grassroots activists defending their lands and water. It commits to working with feminist and social movements to dismantle the patriarchy and combat the exploitation of women's productive and reproductive labor.

• Berta Cáceres, an indigenous Lenca activist, was murdered in La Esperanza, Honduras, for leading the COPINH and the Lenca people in opposing the construction of six mega-dams on the Gualcarque River.
• The document argues that the struggle to protect territories is inextricably linked to the fight against a capitalist and patriarchal system that exploits women and treats the environment as an infinite resource for capital accumulation.
• Indigenous, peasant, and working-class women globally face systematic persecution, abuse, and death from state agents and corporations when organizing to oppose the destruction of their communities.
• Friends of the Earth International committed during its 2016 Biennial General Assembly to work toward dismantling the patriarchy, viewing this as essential for systemic change and the end of the exploitation of women's productive and reproductive labor.
