Inside Indonesia's Secret War for West Papua | Foreign Correspondent 12 May 2020
Inside Indonesia's Secret War for West Papua | Foreign Correspondent 12 May 2020 Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 37 Views • 5 years ago

Just north of Australia a secret war is being fought. West Papuan independence fighters and Indonesian security forces are involved in a protracted and bloody battle over the issue of Papuan independence.

The conflict escalated after young West Papuan fighters killed Indonesian road workers building a highway into Papua’s central highlands.

The Indonesia government hit back hard, deploying hundreds of police and military who attacked the region in an effort to root out the rebels.

Last year mass protests broke out, with civil resistance leaders from in and outside West Papua calling for freedom from Indonesia.

With foreign media largely shut out, the story of this unfolding humanitarian disaster remains untold.

Hundreds have died and local officials estimate that over 40 000 people have been displaced. There are allegations of torture and human rights abuses.

Foreign Correspondent has been able to report from inside the conflict zone, gaining access to exclusive pictures of the recent unrest and speaking to eyewitnesses of the violence.

“I have to yell out to the world…because if I don’t, we’re going to be weaker and the indigenous people will be wiped out ”, says one West Papuan highlander who’s looking after children orphaned in the recent fighting.

“We will not retreat. We will not run. We will fight until recognition dawns ” , says a member of West Papua’s young guerrilla force whose ranks include teenagers orphaned in the ongoing conflict.

“Dialogue is needed but dialogue which is constructive”, says Indonesia’s former Security Minister. “We have closed the door for dialogue on a referendum. No dialogue for independence.”

Sally Sara reports on a war with no end in sight.

A Forest Garden With 500 Edible Plants Could Lead to a Sustainable Future | Short Film Showcase
A Forest Garden With 500 Edible Plants Could Lead to a Sustainable Future | Short Film Showcase Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 37 Views • 5 years ago

Instead of neat rows of monoculture, forest gardens combine fruit and nut trees, shrubs, herbs, vines and perennial vegetables together in one seemingly wild setting. This type of agroforestry mimics natural ecosystems and uses the space available in a sustainable way. UK-based Martin Crawford is one of the pioneers of forest gardening. Starting out with a flat field in 1994, his land has been transformed into a woodland and serves as an educational resource for others interested in forest gardening. This short film by Thomas Regnault focuses on Crawford's forest garden, which is abundant, diverse, edible, and might be one answer to the future of food systems.
