Ka Hsaw Wa and Katie Redford: Earth Rights | Bioneers

Ka Hsaw Wa and Katie Redford, the co-founders and directors of EarthRights International, will discuss their work from the jungles of Burma and the Amazon to U.S. courtrooms to hold corporations accountable for human rights and environmental abuses committed in the name of development. They will focus on EarthRights' landmark lawsuit Doe v. Unocal, and their work to raise the voices of indigenous people in international forums through their model training program, the EarthRights Schools.
