DVD: Defending Melanesian Land + Sausi – village cooperation

Date published: 12 Apr 10
Defending Melanesian Land is a short video in which Melanesian activists explain why indigenous land is important to people in the Pacific, and why they have formed a regional alliance (the Melanesian Indigenous Land Defence Alliance – MILDA) to defend indigenous Melanesian land.

The DVD also features Sausi – village cooperation, a story about a community in Papua New Guinea which rejected oil palm development, held onto their land, protected their environment and generated higher incomes than those lured into oil palm schemes.
