Oilwatch

Web       http://www.oilwatch.org/

A resistance network that opposes the activities of oil companies in tropical countries.

Oilwatch is a network that builds solidarity and fosters a common identity among peoples of the South. Oilwatch understands similarities in the current pattern of resource exploitation in countries of the South, which reflects historical legacy of disempowerment of peoples and considers the recognition of the right of peoples to self-determination as primary in the resolution of environmental problems.
