Dear Friends,
This week four Achuar leaders are preparing to travel from deep in the Peruvian Amazon to Canada to confront Talisman Energy in their homeland for seeking to drill and destroy their rainforest home. With support from Amazon Watch, Peas, Jiyukam, Ampush and Puwaanch will travel to Ottawa, Calgary and Vancouver with an important message from their people: Canadian company Talisman Energy must stop drilling for oil in their ancestral territory.
Be a part of this epic journey. Join the cause and help them get there.
Along the way we will visit with First Nations in the tar sands of Northern Alberta and on the coast of British Columbia seeking to build indigenous alliances in a collective battle against destructive extractive industries.
Meet the Achuar delegates as they prepare for this heroic journey, then join the Cause to help support it.
The Achuar need your help to make this trip happen. We still need just $5,000 to seal the deal in support of the Achuar's visit to First Nations, and to ensure they have the resources needed to host public educational events in each of the cities we visit. Be a part of the journey and help Achuar voices to be heard around the world. Together we can stop oil drilling in the Amazon Rainforest.
In solidarity with the Achuar,
Gregor MacLennan
Peru Program Coordinator
