About this listen
In this episode, we delve into the growing tensions between local communities and palm oil companies. Residents affected by large-scale palm oil projects are speaking out after being excluded from compensation schemes, despite bearing the brunt of environmental degradation, loss of livelihoods, and social disruption.
We hear firsthand accounts from community members detailing the challenges they face, from encroachment on their land to declining access to natural resources. The residents are now demanding a direct meeting with the President to seek redress and inclusion in compensation plans.
Join us as we explore the broader implications of land-based investments in Uganda, the rights of local communities, and the urgent need for accountability, transparency, and fair compensation. This episode highlights the intersection of development, justice, and community advocacy.
