Vingt-deux communautés dépossédées de leurs terres poursuivent en justice Salala Rubber Corporation et le gouvernement libérien (En)

« Their lawsuit seeks a declaration that they retain ownership of their traditional lands despite the government’s decision to grant a concession to rubber plantation companies in 1959. If successful, they could set a legal precedent by undermining a decades-old land law that erased indigenous people’s land rights countrywide without due process or compensation. »
