Thousands of people from the indigenous Guaraní people community are in forced labour on private ranches in southern Bolivia. The new Government is taking some steps to address this problem, but it remains important to keep up the pressure on this important issue.

Please click here http://www.antislavery.org/2007/actioncountry.html to write to the Bolivian Government and the European Commission to raise your concerns. Do send us copies of any replies you receive.

You can read background information on forced labour in Bolivia here http://www.antislavery.org/2007/countrybg.html .

The River Ran Through It - Take action today to prevent a water diversion project through the important Daurian wetlands area. Our sources on the ground tell us construction on the site has already begun without properly assessing the environmental impacts. Write a letter to the leaders of the Chinese and Russian governments urging them to protect these wetlands.
