  • Sobeida.<br />
<br />
Sobeida lives in a notorious neighbourhood of Catacamas, Olancho. Her son Ronald decided to migrate to escape the violence. Men were trying to kill him. His family got him out of Catacamas by using decoys to distract the men that were waiting for him at both ends of his street.<br />
<br />
During his journey up to the US, he lived numerous adventures, and was well liked for helping others on the journey up to the US, including saving others’ lives. Helping someone else escape from a criminal group he broke his ankle.<br />
<br />
After months of detention in the US, when he was deported, he came back to Olancho and became the coordinator of the LWF program of young returned migrants in Olancho. <br />
<br />
Shortly afterwards, Ronal Leonardo Rojas Castro was shot dead in Olancho by unknown assailants.<br />

  • Jimmy Randolfo Aguilar lay on a hospital bed in the emergency room of Choluteca hospital, beaten by a reportedly large group of soldiers during a demonstration against fraud in the elections, sources said he died from his injuries later that night.<br />
<br />
In a letter shared with the photographer, emergency room staff in the same hospital were instructed to make a special report of anyone with injuries related to tear gas, baton beatings or bullet wounds likely to have been inflicted by armed forces or police. <br />
<br />
Human rights groups are documenting many cases of people being taken from their homes by military units at night, after taking part in demonstrations. It is repeatedly claimed by victims and human rights groups that profiles of protestors adn opposition activists are provided to the authorities by their neighbours who work on government programmes like Vida Mejor (Better Life), and the presumption is that they are obliged to provide this information on their neighbours. Army then arrive at night and call opposition members out by their names and nicknames - and use force to gain entry if they don’t come out.

  • Israel Martínez, Tolupan indigenous man from Montaña de la Flor, Honduras. "See the frogspawn? Look, it's everywhere. See the snails in the water, on the stones? The animals drink this water, we drink this water straight from the river. The water in their [ladino] places is poisoned with fertlizers and by the ones who do the mining, they don't have frogs and snails any more, they're already dead, maybe they don't understand. They cut down their trees and now it doesn't rain any more. And now they want our land, our trees, they want to ruin our water, dry up our rivers. And they want to kill us. They are killing us".

  • Domingo Ankuash, a Shuar indigenous leader from Morona Santiago, Ecuador, is in Lima for the Tribunal on the Rights of Nature running concurrently with the UN climate talks COP20. Open cast mining in the Condor Cordillera has been approved by the government and already 400 hectares of forest have been cut down to make way for the start of the mining. Indigenous leaders have been bribed, dividing indigenous groups, others have been killed in assassinations or during protests. The area has been militarised, with army and security companies, PR work against the indigenous people promotes government and army lies. A storm is coming for us, it's another invasion, we survived the Spanish, but we don't think we can survive the destruction of the environment we depend on, it's killing us.

  • Honduran indigenous leader and environmentalist campaigner Berta Cáceres was shot dead at home by armed men on March 2nd 2016. Her case is emblematic, but it is one of over a hundred assassinations of environmentalist and indigenous leaders since the coup that ousted Mel Zelaya in 2009.  Her killing caused international outcry, what has changed since then?

  • Yanina Avila, 18, daughter of assassinated Tolupán indigenous leader José de Los Santos Sevilla, in the remote area of Montaña de la Flor in Honduras.<br />
<br />
Yanina talks of her father's fear of encroaching mining and logging companies, and nearby ladinos who want to take Tolupán land, and how defenceless they are against them. While non-indigenous areas are deforested, the rivers dry or poisoned, the indigenous territories have woodland and fresh water in the rivers.<br />
<br />
Eight Tolupán leaders have been assassinated in this area. Others have been assassinated in another Tolupán area in Yoro.<br />

  • Yelin Javier Matute Ramos, 22. (with Ruth Abigael, his girlfriend)<br />
<br />
My father went with a smuggler to the US, but they had a fight.  My cousin was with them, he told us the story afterwards. They were in a cabin, but they left my dad outside. The smuggler tried to kill him by beating him, but he wouldn’t die, so he found a machete, cut his hand off, and killed him. Then he tied him to the back of a car and dragged his body around on the dirt road and dumped his body on the railway, so that they’d think he was killed by the train. His wife had to identify him, he was unrecognisable. They sent his body back. <br />
<br />
Despite that, I decided to try my own luck and migrate.<br />
<br />
My mother is in the US, I haven’t seen her for 12 years. <br />
<br />
I decided to go last year. <br />
<br />
A cartel stopped the lorry we were travelling in, they got us all out of the trailer. They told us all to get out all our money, or that they’d kill us. They put all the women separately.<br />
<br />
They killed the driver of the lorry, and his assistant. They asked the lorry driver how many people he was carrying, he said 40, they told him to count us, there were 125 of us. They cut four fingers off his hand, one by one, and then they put a knife into his throat. I didn’t want to see it, but they did it in front of us. Then they did the same to his assistant, they cut off four fingers and pushed a knife into his throat. <br />
<br />
They left us there on the side of the road. We were picked up by Mexican migration and seven days later we were back in Honduras. Everyone I went with went straight back, but I decided to stay. They’ve all got through to the US.<br />
<br />
We got a bus fare to get back to Olancho, we got back with nothing.<br />
Someone told me about the LWF programme and I decided to learn welding, I have those skills now, for life, no one can take that from me. And I’m working in buildings, making furniture, and I have my own equipment.<br />

  • Fanny Ruiz, San Pedro Sula<br />
<br />
Fanny’s son, Jorge Alexander, joined the migrant caravan, against her will, and got to the US border at Tijuana. One night, he was lured into a house with two other Honduran boys, Jorge Alexander and one other were tortured and killed, the third boy escaped. This follows months of hate speech in the media in Mexico and the US, against migrants, and the killings are being treated as hate crimes.<br />
<br />
"My name is Fanny Ruiz. When I was four years old my father killed my mother. My father was sent to prison for a while. Then my brother was killed. My next brother was disappeared, we never saw him again. Then my third brother was killed. Of the six brothers and sisters that we were, just us three girls are alive now. <br />
<br />
Thank God I'm still alive, to carry on looking after my children, but it's not great having to hide in your own country so that nothing happens to you. <br />
<br />
All girls and women in this country are in a dangerous position, many of us are scared to go out in case we get followed and raped and killed.<br />
<br />
I have shrapnel all over me, here in my forehead, in my back, my legs, my breasts. I was shot 13 times, they were trying to kill me. Thank God, I am still here, alive to look after my kids.<br />
<br />
I have worked in lots of things to take care of my children: gardening, farming, building construction, flooring, cooking. I’m good with money, I work hard, I don’t have any vices, but that's not enough."<br />
<br />
Fanny is pictured with two of her children in the cemetery, at the grave they prepared to bury Jorge Alexander while they were waiting for the repatriation of his body.

  • Rolando Herrera <br />
<br />
My father was a police officer. He died in 2010, he was killed.<br />
<br />
In that time Olancho was in a difficult situation. Drug trafficking had grown a lot, the authorities didn’t do anything, there was no other authority. We would walk through Juticalpa and see the traffickers controlling everything in the street. One time I saw a crowd of people and could hear people shouting, as I approached I could see that they were burning some people alive in the street, they poured petrol on them and set them on fire, in front of all the people. I don’t know what it was about. That sort of thing would happen.<br />
<br />
Girls and women couldn’t go out, they didn’t dare to go out, so they had to close some schools, no one wanted to go to school. If a trafficker wanted a girl, he’d just take her on the street, drive her away, she might never be seen again. <br />
<br />
To get to work, I bought a motorbike on credit, and one day the traffickers stopped me on the street, at gunpoint, and took the bike. I never saw it again, but had to carry on paying the quotas for the loan, even though I didn’t have the bike.<br />
<br />
Most of the houses in my neighbourhood had two or three kids, we used to play on the street. Within a few years, no one played outside, and all the kids, absolutely all of the kids, became migrants and went to the US. A few of them were killed, some in front of their house, before they could leave. It became a ghost town, many houses are abandoned, some in serious disrepair, some houses had their roofs and doors removed.  To go into the area you have to drive slowly with the windows down, and report to the trafficker guards, telling them who you were going to visit. If you drive fast or with the windows up, you’ll be shot.<br />
<br />
So, I went to the US. I was there for a while. I made two trips, the first one failed, it went bad. I went with a people smuggler. We had a guide, and we met a group of the Zetas, they killed the guide in front of us, they cut his throat and decapi

  • I’m Reina Isabal Calix, I’m a survivor of the massacre of Santa Clara and Horcones. The massacre happened on the 25 June 1975. There was a plan by landowners and military, Coronel Chinchilla. They confused work for the common good with work for communism. We were working for the common good. They prepared to crush us. We were a group of religious people, priests, farmers, women. We were struggling for agrarian reform. All we really wanted was for people to have enough land to plant food for themselves, to have their daily bread, for their children and families. We were united, teachers, poor farmers, young people, students, workers, priests. It was a big struggle, but they wanted to crush it. <br />
<br />
There was a Colombian priest here called Ivan Betancourt. There was also an American priest called Casimiro Zypher. They were both killed too, along with the campesinos and students. <br />
<br />
At that time, speaking about the common good, was like promoting communism. There was a plan, to destroy everything we were doing and slow down the agrarian reform. <br />
<br />
We had a shop, radiofonica school, they killed the person who ran it. We used to train carpenters and mechanics here.<br />
<br />
We planned a march, 5000 people came. They couldn’t stop it. But, the soldiers came in here using students as a cover, it was a trick. Three people died right here, in the centre. <br />
<br />
Others were taken to the prison. Father Casimiro died being tortured during interrogation. Later they took them to a farm, and most were killed there, they threw the bodies down a well. Fourteen people were killed.

<br />
"In one instance recently, two of our tribal leaders, Dionel Campos and Aurelio Sinzo, were killed in front of all their community in Surigao del Sur, the paramilitaries woke everyone up in the village very early in the morning, going into their houses to get them outside. More than 200 people including children were there, and they executed them in front of everybody. That morning they also killed the director of the agricultural school, one of the Lumad schools there, they slit his throat. This is all linked to coal mining. That same day, while they brought the dead bodies down to the evacuation centre, they did the ground-breaking for coal mining. Everyone from that area evacuated the same day, in fear for their lives.<br />
<br />
67,000 hectares are targeted for coal mining. Ten coal mining companies are applying for concessions to mine. <br />
<br />
The attacks are intensifying. They are closing our Lumad schools, they have already closed 86 of our schools. When we asked the soldiers why, they told us that the orders are coming from Malacañang (the presidential palace).<br />
<br />
If you resist, if you are lucky they can trump up charges against you, or they can just kill you.<br />
<br />
We have only two types of land under Philippine law, private land and public land. There is no provision for ancestral domains, for our collective ownership and land management. This legal inadequacy makes it easy for them to take our land, to sell concessions for logging and mining on our ancestral domains. It is easy for them to force us out legally. They have already given a lot of our land to mining corporations and commodity producers, for palm oil, bananas. They are destroying our beautiful rainforest and mountains, our beautiful people."

  • Ubiratã de Souza Dias, or Bira, speaks about the movement of people affected by dams in the São Paulo region.<br />
<br />
The Ribeira de Iguape is the largest river in São Paulo State, 470kms long and is unusual in the region because it has no dams on it, but dams are planned here. Organised opposition to the dams has stopped a dam being built at Tijuco Alto already, and is actively opposed to the building of another three proposed dams in the area.<br />
<br />
The Movement by People Affected by Dams, (Movimento dos Atingidos por Baragems, MAB) says that the construction of dams and the flooding of valleys forces the displacement of people particularly indigenous groups and quilombolos (members of the 5,000+ historical rural communities begun by escaped slaves) and destoys livelihoods. Many of those most affected are indigenous people, quilombolos, poor farmers, landless workers, fishermen, who are not consulted, yet their lives are affected or their livelihoods ruiined by dams.<br />
<br />
Because of climate change we have an increase in extreme weather events, droughts and floods, and new records are being set for heavy rainfall, We can get so much rain that dams can collapse. Disasters are quite rare because  flood gates can be opened, but opening floodgates also causes flooding, it can cause damage and destruction of building and towns and crops, it can ruin livelihoods and kill people. In São Paulo state, because of heavy rainfall, floodgates were recently opened on nearby Capivari river at the UHE Perigot de Souza dam, flooding Eldorado and other towns. The company that owns the dam (Copel - Companhia Paranaense de Energia)  denies responsability for the damages.<br />

Sustainable renewable energy is preferable to emission-creating fossil fuel burning, but the human, cultural and environmental cost of giant hydroelectric projects is high and needs to be considered much more carefully.

And here they've taught us to become economical and organic, we don't use any bought synthetic chemical fertilizer or insecticide, it's all natural. And I've been working with poultry too. And, you should see, since I've done all this, all the iguanas have come back, they've built a nest here, I love seeing them, I won't kill them. And birds come here, tucans, parrots, everything. I am really impressed with what happens on a farm when you only use organic material".

People in the village were saying that the injection was to kill me. I was the first one to be injected, the very first, here in my village on March 23. 44 people were vaccinated. I had fever after the vaccination, it worried me a bit, but they warned me that would happen and it didn't last long. I've been monitored for three months and I've had no problems. The last follow up, 84 days after the vaccination, was all clear".

"I’m here because in Mindanao, because of martial law, the military are attacking our [Lumad] schools, they close our schools, they kill our parents and some of our students. We are here to tell people what is happening and what martial law in Mindanao looks like. <br />

Today is a special day because we could not expect that we would have a moving up ceremony, a graduation, because we expected that we would not ever have this because of the high militarisation of our communities. <br />

Here in the Bakwit (evacuee) School, half of the students have lost their parents or family members.<br />

We need solidarity from other countries. Can you help us? We need support to end Martial Law in Mindanao, to save our schools. We are being deprived of social services like education and health, but also of our ancestral lands."

  • Jesús López, 17. Gangster. "I was sentenced to four and a half years prison for extortion. I've been inside for seven months and 17 days. I'll get out when I'm 22.When I was nine years old I used to go to a church called the Ministry of God's Beloved. But I had to work at that age, to survive economically. But it was hard at home, there were many problems, and I decided to leave home. My aunts would fight over the food, and well, they weren't my parents, and I didn't want to obey them, so I left, and I joined the gang. At ten years old I was taking drugs. I began murdering at age 12. I would kill kids of my own age, to keep in with the gang. In the gang that's something that's normal. When I was 14 I began stealing cars, carrying weapons, but by 16 I got into extortion, I would distribute people across neighbourhoods in Tegucigalpa to carry out the extortions. One of my children died, and my life went further out of control, I did more and more in the gang. I am here in this centre, and I'm trying to get some of the shit out of my head. I want to study, and maybe become a soldier. Before, you could leave the gang if you joined an evangelical church, but the gang is evolving, and now you can't leave unless you are dead. I'm alive, I'm still breathing, and I'm asking God for another chance."

  • Maria Jesús Medina Pineda, Ciudad Nueva, Marcala<br />
<br />
My mother died when I was five years old, we were ten brothers and sisters. We grew up, how could I tell you, it was a horrible thing. My father had already left the country because of political problems. Damned political parties. They wanted to kill him. We suffered a lot of hunger. The family disintegrated, some left, some died. I stayed with my older sister, she’s still alive, she’ll be 100 years old in September.<br />
<br />
I haven’t always lived here, I used to live near the Catholic church in Marcala. But because we toast coffee, the smoke polluted the air in the city, so we moved out here. I’m 80 and I work every day. That’s the secret to eternal youth, work hard and be honest, I have no ailments, I’m healthy. I had three children, one is in the United States. The boy manages the coffee factory. We prepare, toast and sell coffee in bags. We have been toasting coffee for 40 years, I was the first to do it. I began playing around with it, with plastic bags, I used to send the children out to the street to sell them, or to the neighbours, at three Colons a pound, at that time we used the Colon (Salvadorean currency), as we are near to the Salvadorean border. It’s an honest business, a healthy business. The father of my children died. I didn’t get married, I just had my children, with a military man, he was already married. I have a grandson who is a pilot and another who is a civil engineer and he’s in the United States, you can’t get work here, only if you are involved in politics you can get a job here.<br />
<br />
I fell madly in love with the military man, I was about 22 years old, I had my kids with him.<br />
<br />
With the business, I began in shocking poverty. We didn’t know what to do then. I worked as a secretary in the Junta Nacional. And I worked in the high command of the Army, from four until nine at night. I earned 225 Lempiras in the Junta, and 150 in the high command. I’d put aside 30 Lempiras for the c

  • Sobeida.<br />
<br />
Sobeida is given a hug by her granddaughter, the daughter of her son Ronal. Sobeida lives in a notorious neighbourhood of Catacamas, Olancho. Her son Ronald decided to migrate to escape the violence. Men were trying to kill him. His family got him out of Catacamas by using decoys to distract the men that were waiting for him at both ends of his street.<br />
<br />
During his journey up to the US, he lived numerous adventures, and was well liked for helping others on the journey up to the US, including saving others’ lives. One time, helping someone else escape from a criminal group he broke his ankle.<br />
<br />
After months of detention in the US, when he was deported, he came back to Olancho and became the coordinator of the LWF program of young returned migrants in Olancho. <br />
<br />
Shortly afterwards, Ronal Leonardo Rojas Castro was shot dead in Olancho by unknown assailants.<br />

  • Ubiratã de Souza Dias, right, show on a map where planned and existing dams are on local rivers.<br />
<br />
The Ribeira de Iguape is the largest river in São Paulo State, 470kms long and is unusual in the region because it has no dams on it, but dams are planned here. Organised opposition to the dams has stopped a dam being built at Tijuco Alto already, and is actively opposed to the building of another three proposed dams in the area.<br />
<br />
The Movement by People Affected by Dams, (Movimento dos Atingidos por Baragems, MAB) says that the construction of dams and the flooding of valleys forces the displacement of people particularly indigenous groups and quilombolos (members of the 5,000+ historical rural communities begun by escaped slaves) and destoys livelihoods. Many of those most affected are indigenous people, quilombolos, poor farmers, landless workers, fishermen, who are not consulted, yet their lives are affected or their livelihoods ruiined by dams.<br />
<br />
Because of climate change we have an increase in extreme weather events, droughts and floods, and new records are being set for heavy rainfall, We can get so much rain that dams can collapse. Disasters are quite rare because  flood gates can be opened, but opening floodgates also causes flooding, it can cause damage and destruction of building and towns and crops, it can ruin livelihoods and kill people. In São Paulo state, because of heavy rainfall, floodgates were recently opened on nearby Capivari river at the UHE Perigot de Souza dam, flooding Eldorado and other towns. The company that owns the dam (Copel - Companhia Paranaense de Energia)  denies responsability for the damages.<br />

Sustainable renewable energy is preferable to emission-creating fossil fuel burning, but the human, cultural and environmental cost of giant hydroelectric projects is high and needs to be considered much more carefully.

  • Bananas on the farm of Ricardo Umaña Aragón. He says "we've grown bananas, fruit trees, mango, guava, peach, papaya, custard apple, jocote, and they gave us seeds for cucumbers, squash. And they gave me a toilet. And here they've taught us to become economical and organic, we don't use any bought synthetic chemical fertilizer or insecticide, it's all natural. And I've been working with poultry too. And, you should see, since I've done all this, all the iguanas have come back, they've built a nest here, I love seeing them, I won't kill them. And birds come here, tucans, parrots, everything. I am really impressed with what happens on a farm when you only use organic material".

<br />
We’ve seen people leaving Syria, going through France, thousands of them. We never thought we’d see thousands of people leaving Honduras at the same time. But, if you all go together, you don’t pay smugglers, and it’s safer.<br />
<br />
I lived in a really dangerous neighbourhood. Really dangerous. Lots of my friends were killed.<br />
<br />
The first three times I got up to Laredo.<br />
Then I went on the train, on top of the train, up to Mexicali.<br />
All in all, I went six times, I was deported five times.<br />
<br />
The last time, the people I was with got impatient, they tried to get across, they were deported. I got homesick, I decided to come back here, to eat beans.<br />
<br />
But, it’s hard here, economically. <br />
<br />
I was lucky to survive it, I saw someone killed in front of me, I was with this guy from Choluteca, we were tired, it was six in the morning, we hadn’t slept much, we were perched in between the train wagons, he slipped off and went straight under the wheels. God knows how many people have died on the journey, and plenty come back with limbs missing. Another time I saw someone reach out for a mango from an overhanging tree, the train will full, 60 people on each wagon, we were hungry, so he reached out, he slipped, he went between the wagons, landed on his teeth, he was dead straight away.<br />
<br />
One time I nearly died myself. I was travelling between Nayarit and Guadalajara. I was on the train and I touched a high-tension cable, it just brushed my face, burned me, two Mexicans stopped me from falling off, they grabbed my legs. I’ve never been closer to death. I have never got on a train again. <br />
<br />
Sometimes the Mexican throw stones at you while you’re on the train. <br />
<br />
I have done training with the LWF, I am making a living painting, painting houses and businesses, and doing signwriting and tattoos.<br />

I was in a private university. It was too expensive. I live with my mother, she’s a single mother, we couldn’t afford to carry on with the studies, I couldn’t find a job, there’s a lot of violence here, a lot. So, I decided to go to the US. <br />
<br />
We paid a smuggler, $4,000. <br />
<br />
Saying goodbye to my mum was hard, we’d never been apart before. You know it’s risky, you don’t know if you are going to come back, you are conscious of the risk, of being kidnapped, being raped, being killed. But, there’s nothing here. We don’t all have drinking water, sometimes there’s no water at all. There are people right here who don’t eat three meals a day, who can’t afford to send their kids to school, my neighbour here didn’t send their kids to school last year, couldn’t afford it. If you are lucky to get day work here, as a farm labourer, you might get 100 lempiras a day, maybe 90, depends, and it’s hard work. You can’t do much with 100 Lempiras ($4 USD). <br />
<br />
The truth is that you suffer on the journey, sometimes you walk all night, sometimes there’s not much food, you have to sleep on the floor, and it’s dangerous, you can be kidnapped, killed. They tried to sell one of the young women I was with, to sleep with men, you understand. I lost a lot of weight on the journey, I got really skinny, I didn’t get back to normal until after being in prison.<br />

I was deported twice, once from Mexico, once from the US. The first time I went I got to Mexico, I was deported back to San Pedro Sula, and then I just went straight back. I got to McAllen, Texas and was caught shortly after I got there. I was imprisoned for eight days and then deported. I didn’t have money to get a lawyer to fight my case, so I came back, I signed the form to be deported. I was in prison with Salvadoreans, Guatemalans, other Hondurans. I was 19. <br />

  • Jairo Restrepo says he’s 110 years old, he laughs loudly, in fact, he has to calculate it, he’s 58. Recently, a mule fell on top of him. He was loading the mule with sacks of coffee from his farm, when the mule slipped on the steep incline of the mountain and got stuck on top of him with its legs in the air. “It could have killed me, but it gave me a hernia. It’s serious, Ave Maria! the pain is terrible.” He’s waiting for an operation to fix it. With the Fairtrade Premium the Andes Coop now makes regular contributions to the BEPS pension system for him, and additionally, when he sells coffee, the coop makes further contributions of 3% of the sales. “It’s better like this, when I sell the coffee, to make my contribution then, because I can’t make monthly contributions, my income is not monthly, it’s just when I get a harvest”. Aging coffee farmers, until now, have had poor health care, and no pension to look forward to. This is hard on the farmers, hard on their families, and it makes farming unattractive for young farmers. Coop administrators talk in worried terms about problems of 'generational takeover’ as young people abandon farming in large numbers. The BEPS system gives farmers better access to health care, such as hernia operations, and will provide a bi-monthly income to retired farmers. Don Jairo reflects: “man, coffee farming is tough. Sometimes I’m completely skint, sometimes we have long spells when we don’t eat three times a day, we don’t eat properly. Sometimes my clothes are torn, and my clothes stay torn, I can’t even afford a second-hand shirt. And, I tell you, I’ve worked like a bull all my life, I’ve had no Sundays, no bank holidays, no holidays. I have to go up the mountain, every day, that’s what I’ve had to do, that’s what I’ve got to do now, hacking a living out of the mountain. And what have I got now?” he laughs “a hernia!”. “What can I tell you, a pension makes a big difference for us, i

M-19 guerrillas occupied the court, everyone in the building was killed by the government, but there are many unresolved issues. Maria Lida, and others, were filmed being led alive from the building, but their bodies were later found dead in the building. Also, people who hadn't been in the building, who were tortured and killed elsewhere were found dead in the building, they were 'disappeared' and then 'appeared'. The priest who gave the church ceremony for the burial of Maria Lida arrived in a bulletproof car, he is in a protection programme because of the threats he gets for working with the families of victims of the 50 year war in Colombia. Peace agreements are being negotiated between the FARC guerrilla and it is hoped that the ELN guerrilla will also be included in the process.

"On 26 November at around 4pm, I began to give live coverage of some protests against the government. The incident occurred at 6:35pm. <br />
<br />
I felt the hit of the bullet, I felt that it went into the bones, but I also felt them go numb, like they went to sleep, a bit like the funny bone in your elbow. I thought that it was just a broken bone, with a bit of rest, I’d soon be back at work.<br />
<br />
I was transmitting live. I wanted my family to know that I was okay. But then someone else else was saying that I’d been hit in the stomach.<br />
<br />
We were around the edge of a commercial centre, a mall, I hid down behind a steep curb, I thought I’d be protected there. But I was hit. The protestors took me to the hospital.<br />

The bullets came from a bus. COFADEH have testimonies that bullets were shot from the same bus against a protest on the day before.<br />
<br />
The official version of events is that the bus was being used by prison guards, going from the La Granja courts taking three prisoners accused of extortion, to prison. And they allege that the bus was attacked with the intention of liberating the prisoners, so they opened fire.  In first place, the route they would have taken for that journey is a different one, they would have had to take a very different route, breaking all their protocols, and going into an area where there was known to be a protest. The videos show that the bus was not attacked in any way.<br />
<br />
The videos show that there was nothing between me and the bus, and the shots were not what are called persuasive shots, over my head, but directly at me. <br />
<br />
From 2001 until now, 67 journalists, people working for communication, have been killed. But only three have been taken to justice. For most of them there is no process of investigation, the people who have killed our colleagues enjoy complete impunity."

  • Jairo Restrepo says he’s 110 years old, he laughs loudly, in fact, he has to calculate it, he’s 58. Recently, a mule fell on top of him. He was loading the mule with sacks of coffee from his farm, when the mule slipped on the steep incline of the mountain and got stuck on top of him with its legs in the air. “It could have killed me, but it gave me a hernia. It’s serious, Ave Maria! the pain is terrible.” He’s waiting for an operation to fix it. With the Fairtrade Premium the Andes Coop now makes regular contributions to the BEPS pension system for him, and additionally, when he sells coffee, the coop makes further contributions of 3% of the sales. “It’s better like this, when I sell the coffee, to make my contribution then, because I can’t make monthly contributions, my income is not monthly, it’s just when I get a harvest”. Aging coffee farmers, until now, have had poor health care, and no pension to look forward to. This is hard on the farmers, hard on their families, and it makes farming unattractive for young farmers. Coop administrators talk in worried terms about problems of 'generational takeover’ as young people abandon farming in large numbers. The BEPS system gives farmers better access to health care, such as hernia operations, and will provide a bi-monthly income to retired farmers. Don Jairo reflects: “man, coffee farming is tough. Sometimes I’m completely skint, sometimes we have long spells when we don’t eat three times a day, we don’t eat properly. Sometimes my clothes are torn, and my clothes stay torn, I can’t even afford a second-hand shirt. And, I tell you, I’ve worked like a bull all my life, I’ve had no Sundays, no bank holidays, no holidays. I have to go up the mountain, every day, that’s what I’ve had to do, that’s what I’ve got to do now, hacking a living out of the mountain.

  • The remains of María Lida Mondol de Palacios, a victim in the massacre of the Palace of Justice in Bogota in November 1985, were finally put to rest. Maria Lida was the assistant of a magistrate. M-19 guerrillas occupied the court, everyone in the building was killed by the government, but there are many unresolved issues. Maria Lida, and others, were filmed being led alive from the building, but their bodies were later found dead in the building. Also, people who hadn't been in the building, who were tortured and killed elsewhere were found dead in the building, they were 'disappeared' and then 'appeared'. The priest who gave the church ceremony for the burial of Maria Lida arrived in a bulletproof car, he is in a protection programme because of the threats he gets for working with the families of victims of the 50 year war in Colombia. Peace agreements are being negotiated between the FARC guerrilla and it is hoped that the ELN guerrilla will also be included in the process.

  • A photojournalist, in a ballistic helmet and gasmask, stands next to a lamppost to avoid being hit by teargas cannisters. Teargas works in contact with moisture, so as it goes into your nostrils, eyes or mouth is starts burning. But also as you sweat it burns. Even having a shower afterwards is painful. Several people were immobilised and screaming with it, as well as a couple of people who'd passed out, overcome by it. There have been cases of babies and elderly people being killed by it.

On one day recently some 220mm of rain fell (more than 8.5 inches) in one day. A good harvest of corn can be had from 150mm over three months, getting more than that on one day alone is disastrous, top soil is washed away, and nutrients are leached from the soil, but also young plants are killed, and then the soil is saturated and fungal infections of plants occur."

<br />
María de Jesús Gabarette, Tierra Colorada, Lempira<br />
<br />
<br />
"My husband died. He hanged himself, here in the house, with a rope. He was a drunk. When he used to get drunk I’d be afraid. He’d be really drunk sometimes and he’d shout at me, telling me off for going to church. Sometimes I’d just leave the house and sleep somewhere else, or I’d sleep with a knife under my pillow. Everyone used to tell me to leave him. Since he’s died, it’s helped me going to the church. My children helped me build this little adobe house.<br />
<br />
He’s been dead seven years now. Lots of women get killed by drunk and violent husbands.<br />
<br />
I’m afraid my kids will waste their lives drinking.<br />
<br />
I make a living by going to Lepaera to buy vegetables and chickens, and I bring them back here to sell. And I’m training to be a midwife. I had my first baby at 24, here in the house, attended by a midwife."

<br />
Some men wanted to rape my sister, so my mother went to the police to report them, then the men killed my mother. I was six. I don’t know my father, he’s been in prison for 17 years. I’ve been looking after my younger siblings since my mother died. I get afraid time to time, there’s still a lot of violence.  But the main reason I left was the economic situation here. Poverty. <br />
<br />
I went on my own, no smuggler, I couldn’t afford to pay one. I was stopped by Mexican Migration, in Palenque, I was detained for three days and was sent back on a bus.<br />
<br />
The LWF trained me as a barber, and bit by bit I’m building up clients, everyone round here comes for a haircut.<br />
<br />
I have a girlfriend, but we can’t get married until we’ve prepared well, we want a place to live, we’re saving up. <br />

  • Carlos Andrés Enriquez Hernández, 23, Tailor, Barrio La Soledad, Juticalpa, Olancho<br />
<br />
I was in four iceboxes in the US, about three days in each. The icebox is a room where they put you with very cold air conditioning, the aim of it is to freeze you, to make you more likely to sign the form so that they can send you straight home. It really is freezing, you are on the floor, there’s no bedding, you don’t have enough clothes, your teeth chatter and you feel like you are going to die.<br />
<br />
I was deported after about 20 days. I met someone here in Juticalpa who told me about the LWF.<br />
<br />
I left my place because of danger. What does danger mean? Ha! Danger here is not an abstract concept. My whole family was threatened by a gang. Threats against your life are part of controlling you, subjecting you. My whole family had to leave. People who don’t take notice of threats like that are simply killed. We’ve lost a lot of friends and neighbours, they disappeared. The gang here use a tourniquet on your neck, that’s their signature.<br />
<br />
When I came back, I moved. I had nothing, lost everything. <br />
<br />
The LWF helped me get back on my feet. I make school uniforms, I make adjustments to clothes, I make suits and rent them for weddings. I have dreams of getting bigger to start making clothes that people here want. I have no plan to go back to the US. <br />
<br />
With skills here, and a helping hand to get on your feet, and plenty of hard work, you can make it here, you can survive.<br />

He was the eighth Tolupán leader to be assassinated in this small area of the country, the killings were linked to land tenure, as non-indigenous people try to take land from the Tolupán people and run mining and logging there. There are several Tolupan tribes in Honduras, split between Montaña de la Flor and Yoro.

  • Marco Rosalio Duarte laughs "Get that horse out of my picture!" <br />
<br />
Marco Rosalio is one of the leaders of the Federation of Pech Tribes in Honduras, I interview him in Pueblo Nuevo Subirana, an hour from Dulce Nombre de Culmí, Olancho, Honduras.<br />
<br />
The village has 850 inhabitants, almost all of them are indigenous Pech. There are only 6,000 Pech people. <br />
<br />
"About a quarter of the people in the village speak Pech as their mother tongue, everyone speaks a bit. Pech is taught now in the schools, but most people communicate with Spanish, particularly the young people."<br />
<br />
"The village is surrounded by forest, mainly broadleaf but some pine. The area is now a protected area, the National Congress recently approved it."<br />
<br />
"There are flaws in the reservation agreement. There are 16 white ladino families inside this new anthropological reservation, they have a bit of money too, and it's harder to move rich people than poor people in this country. It will be very hard to move them."<br />
<br />
"For protecting our area, we are threatened. Some families have entered our territory recently and have cut down forest and burned the trees to make pastures for cattle. Their intention is to make money. Our intention is to protect the environment, the forest, the water. We've made declarations to the police, and those people will go to court. This isn't the normal way of doing things here, a lot of violence is used, that's the mentality here. Berta Cáceres is just one of hundreds of people who've been killed for protecting the environment and indigenous rights. At the moment we have death threats against us for trying to protect the environment and our territory. We insist on the use of law to resolve these problems."

  • Bessi, a young woman who makes a living as a tortilla seller, rests in a hammock in Rivera Hernández, a particularly poor area of San Pedro Sula, Honduras. There is no formal employment in the area and many people live in acute poverty. The neighbourhoods on the edges of the river here are not recognised by the municipality and are provision of basic services is unstable, water has been cut off to the thousands of households here for four weeks and electricity is routinely black out. Gangs control the area and violence is endemic, children are recruited to the gangs or killed, girls are often raped. People are deperate to leave the area and many make the perilous journey to the US as illegal migrants or 'mojados'. Thousands of migrants are repatriated to Honduras each month. ACT Alliance members in Honduras provide support services to repatriated child migrants and their families.
