To honor Berta Cáceres’ memory, carry on her struggle

...In Honduras, COPINH and other organizations coordinated a week of events to mark the anniversary. Indigenous community members from around the country came together for a workshop on free, prior and informed consultation and consent in Tegucigalpa, and led a march in the streets of the capital….The focus was on the broader issues and struggles for which Cáceres lived and died: autonomy, territory, justice, equality, collective rights, self-determination, and so much more. To continue the struggle is to honor her legacy, COPINH general coordinator Tomás Gómez told the crowd…The Agua Zarca dam project on the Gualcarque River is one such project, and it continues to face fierce community resistance from Río Blanco and from COPINH. It has received significant international media attention, particularly in light of suspected ties to Cáceres’ murder. It’s a very important and emblematic case, but it’s far from the only one, said Zúñiga Cáceres…“It’s not just Agua Zarca. Concessions for 49 projects have been granted just in Lenca areas, and we can’t forget that,” she said.
