Vladimir,
save a river today!
Free-flowing rivers need
your
help | | |
Only 30% of the world’s
rivers are free-flowing. YOU can help keep those rivers
as nature intended. Donate today to support
rivers and human rights!
International Rivers has worked
for decades alongside local river protectors to keep
rivers healthy and free. Just recently, we supported
over 80 Indigenous leaders and community members to file
a lawsuit to save the last
free-flowing river in
Asia.
The proposed Salween Water
Diversion Project will construct multiple dams and
tunnels to divert water from the transboundary Salween
Basin. If built, the project will impact at least five
protected forests and threaten the livelihoods of over
10 million people, many from Indigenous and ethnic
minority
communities. | | |
“If we don’t stand up
and reveal the truth, we will be trampled on,” stated
Sathan Chiewwichaiphong, one of the
plaintiffs.
The lawsuit was a critical step
in safeguarding this important and iconic river, but the
fight is far from over. To keep pressure on governments
and corporations, local activists all over the world
need your help.
If you have renewed your
support for International Rivers this year, please
accept our sincere thanks! If not, there is still
time. | | |
Your
contribution makes a direct impact to preserve rivers
and their dedicated guardians. We are 100% fueled by
grants and donations, and we couldn't do this work
without you.
Thank you!

Klemm
