Activists Hold Torchlight Rally In Support Of Indigenous People

MANILA, PHILIPPINES - NOVEMBER 10: Activists hold up torches and portraits of slain indigenous peoples and environmental defenders during a rally on November 10, 2022 in Quezon city, Metro Manila, Philippines. As world leaders convene for the 27th United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP27) in Egypt, the Philippines continues to be among those in the top list of the most murderous countries for indigenous peoples and environment defenders. Groups and individuals opposing damaging industries and corporate forest and natural resources destruction are often met with violent crackdowns from the police and military. International non-profit Global Witness has recorded incidents in relation to defenders’ opposition to mining, logging, and dam projects. (Photo by Ezra Acayan/Getty Images)
