⚠️The future of the Congo Basin is at a crossroads

⚠️The future of the Congo Basin is at a crossroads.⚠️70 NGOs have written to the Prime Minister of the Democratic Republic of Congo, urging the government to maintain the country's logging moratorium. Our new briefing warns that draft legislation to lift the ban could open potentially tens of millions of hectares of rainforest to industrial logging, threatening one of the world’s most important carbon and biodiversity stores as well as the rights of thousands of local and Indigenous communities. The DRC is home to around 60% of the Congo Basin rainforest. Decisions taken today will have global consequences for climate, nature and people. We are calling on the DRC government to: - maintain the moratorium; - support community forestry; - ensure transparent land-use planning; - strengthen forest governance and accountability. 🔗Read the briefing (link in the bio) and join us in calling for the Congo Basin's forests to remain standing. #CongoBasin #DRC #Rainforest #Forests #ClimateAction #IndigenousRights #CommunityForestry #Biodiversity #ProtectTheRainforest #ClimateJustice

Community Forest Success in North Kivu, Against Al

Community Forest Success in North Kivu, Against All the Odds 🍃We've just published a new story celebrating a major milestone for community rights and conservation in the DRC. On 2 June 2026, the Masombea community in North Kivu secured legal recognition of its 14,404 hectare community forest – an area roughly equivalent to Paris and Manhattan combined. For the 400 people living across the villages of Msrii, Mampo'o and N'kompe, this achievement secures their rights to manage and protect their customary forest lands for future generations. Located alongside Maiko National Park, the new community forest will help strengthen community-led conservation in one of the most biodiverse regions of the Congo Basin, proving that protecting forests works best when local people are recognised as their custodians. This success is the result of years of determination, collaboration and partnership.

We're launching RFUK's 2033 Vision: A New Era of Rainforest Protection. For more than 30 years, we've worked alongside Indigenous Peoples and local communities to protect tropical forests. Our new vision builds on that experience and sets out how we can scale up rainforest protection over the next decade by combining local action with system change, strengthening Indigenous and civil society movements, harnessing innovative technology and building powerful partnerships. To mark the launch, we sat down with our Executive Director, Joe Eisen, to discuss why this vision is needed now, what success could look like by 2033 and why communities must remain at the heart of rainforest protection. "Change is possible. Our partners, tools and approaches prove this is already happening. We now need to go faster, deeper and further."

They aren’t just watching the forest. They are protecting it. 🛡️🌿In Peru’s Madre de Dios region, 156 Indigenous observers are standing on the frontline against illegal mining. Covering over 500,000 hectares, their data is leading to real justice.⚖️ The Result? In 2025, their evidence led to 5 government raids and the destruction of illegal mining machinery. Every legal complaint they filed was accepted for investigation.⚠️ The Risk? It’s getting dangerous. Criminal networks are arming up. In some communities, 70% of the land is already affected. 79 Indigenous leaders are currently on a protected list due to threats.We are working with our partner @fenamad to ensure these defenders have the tech, legal backing, and safety tools they need to keep going. From threat maps to new risk-reporting apps, we’re evolving to meet the threat.Indigenous communities are leading the fight for the Amazon.

⚖️Justice wins in Peru On World Day of Social Jus

⚖️Justice wins in PeruOn World Day of Social Justice, we share the good news that Peru’s Supreme Court has overturned a ruling that punished Indigenous organisation, and our partner @fenamad, for warning about threats to uncontacted peoples and their forests.The Court recognised that the lawsuit was an attempt to silence public-interest advocacy and affirmed that freedom of expression is essential for defending Indigenous rights and the environment.This landmark decision sets an important precedent against intimidation lawsuits targeting Indigenous and environmental defenders. But the fight isn’t over. Stronger laws are still needed to stop these cases before harm is done.We stand with Indigenous defenders protecting forests and lives. ✊🌳Read the full story at the link in our bio.This work is kindly funded, in part, by @size_of_wales.
