Je tiens à féliciter l'Agence indonésienne de conservation des ressources naturelles (BKSDA) de Papouasie pour sa réaction rapide suite à la découverte d'un commerce d'animaux sauvages endémiques dans plusieurs régions de Papouasie. Lors de la dernière opération, les agents ont découvert plus de soixante oiseaux vivants destinés à la vente, ainsi que cinquante-quatre autres qui avaient été tués, conservés et transformés en couronnes décoratives à partir de plumes d'oiseaux de paradis. Toutes (…)

Depuis près de quatre ans après l'invasion à grande échelle, l'Ukraine est devenue un sujet central du débat politique dans tous les États d'Europe de l'Est. Compte tenu de la lassitude des sociétés et de la crainte de la menace russe, cette attention est loin d'être toujours flatteuse.

For Papuan women, nurturing seeds is part of a long journey of healing wounds. This was experienced by Mama Awin Keti. She is a survivor of the 1998 Biak Massacre. The painful experience she endured is expressed through the practice of planting food crops, such as upland rice seeds and millet. For Mama Awin, planting is a way of restoring herself, in the midst of a state that has never resolved cases of human rights violations, especially against women and children.
The same path was (…)

I wish to commend the Indonesia's Nature Resources Conservation Agency,(BKSDA) Papua for their swift action in following up on the discovery of live endemic wildlife trade in several areas of Papua. In the latest operation, officers discovered more than 60 live birds intended for sale, as well as 54 others that had been killed, preserved, and made into decorative crowns from Birds of Paradise feathers. All evidence was seized from a number of souvenir traders in harbour and market areas. (…)
