“The Territories of Life videos were key to sparking discussions around our own territorial defence issues in the northern Ecuadorian Amazon at legal trainings with indigenous leaders and youth. It’s one thing to hear second-hand that companies are deceitful and cause huge impacts, but seeing people like us from all over the world talking about their personal experiences really hit home. It made us think about the threats we are facing in new ways.”
Oswaldo Nenquimo, Ecuador
