⚖️ JOINT & LIABILITY IN #BINDINGTREATY NEGOTIATIONS We welcome the inclusion of joint & several liability in the treaty but the current wording has some loopholes that let corporations off the hook.

⚖️#BINDINGTREATY, CURRENT LEGAL SYSTEM FAILS COMMUNITIES ⚖️ "While they count profits, we count the dead." Indigenous groups and organizations in the Amazon, affected by the operations of oil companies in Ecuador, denounce repression by the government of Daniel Noboa. elpais.com/planeta-futu...

"The #CorporateLobby present here as 'business associations' are a threat to the treaty and to human rights. For the #BindingTreaty to become an instrument of justice, the process must be free from corporate influence, as this room should be." -Pierre Maison @viacampesina.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy

"Like the Chevron case in Ecuador shows, favourable judgments for communities don't guarantee remedy, since transnational corporations can leave the country to dodge responsibility.
