A new report published by university legal clinics in Brazil, Canada, and the U.S warns that a Canadian company’s potash mining project in the Brazilian Amazon poses significant and potentially irreversible risks to Indigenous communities and the Amazon.
The report is jointly published by the Cardozo Law Institute in Holocaust and Human Rights (CLIHHR), Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul Graduate Program in Law (PPGD/UFRGS), the Observatory of Socio-Environmental Law and Human Rights in the Amazon of the Federal University of Amazonas (UFAM), and the University of Toronto Jackman Law’s International Human Rights Program (IHRP).
