Ebo Forest: government backtracking jeopardises the return of Banen communities to their land

A decree signed by the Prime Minister on 27 April 2023, reclassifying part of the Ebo forest so that it will be easier for its timber to be exploited, has been in circulation for several days. This document plunges the Banen communities back into the 2020 episode that deprived them of their land. Greenpeace is calling on the government to reverse this decision as a matter of urgency, as it jeopardises the well-being and future of these communities as well as the rich biodiversity of this forest.
