Mira Cohen explores the situation for Wayuu people who live in an arid peninsula in northern Colombia. La Guajira region, a rapidly desertifying region shared by northern Colombia and northwestern Venezuela, has been home to the Wayuu indigenous people for centuries. With the presence of one of the largest open-pit coal mines in the world contaminating their land and regional government corruption, Wayuu must take matters into their own hands. Wayuu women uplift their communities by revitalizing indigenous ontology in the fight to preserve their ancestral lands. Human Rights Magazine is produced by The Upstream Journal magazine.

Greece is a destination country for many refugees, asylum seekers, and migrants from the Middle East and North Africa. The majority of these refugees come from Syria, Afghanistan, Egypt, and Eritrea Greece currently hosts about 50,000 refugees. They may have expected that Greece would be a gateway to the rest of Europe, but most of them can expect to remain in the country, since they can no longer legally travel deeper into Europe. Since 2021, many of the refugee arrivals have been detained in what are called Closed Controlled Access Centres, which are similar to prisons, with their inadequate food, minimal and overcrowded housing, surrounded by fencing and watched over by security personnel. In this episode of Human Rights Magazine, Nell Pollak looks into the situation in these Closed Controlled Access Centres. Human Rights Magazine is produced by The Upstream Journal magazine.

The garment industry is Cambodia’s largest employer, with more than 850,000 workers. The three largest markets are the European Union, the destination of 40% of the production, followed by the United States at 30% and Canada at 9%. So, if we purchase clothing made in Cambodia, how concerned should we be about whether there were inadequate wages and rights abuse where the clothing is made?

Support is commonly offered following a diagnosis, but what happens when an individual either cannot get one, or is considered too old for one?

The cost of tea for consumers is really low, given the volume of tea that is grown, half of it produced in China by some 80 million people. But it is workers in places like South Asia that have significant problems, where there is a long history of worker exploitation dating to colonial times. Tea workers throughout the region suffer from widespread child labor, gender discrimination, and wage theft because they are usually low caste and poor. Throughout South Asia, workers on many plantations say that they can barely afford food, let alone other expenses, while those who run the plantations say their costs have risen too much and that they are not making a profit as it is. In this episode of Human Rights Magazine, Chloe Friedland discusses the challenges in tea farming with several experts.

In Canada, the last time housing was considered to be affordable, relative to income, was in 2004 The average price of a home in the Toronto area, the country’s most populated, is more than $1 million. In Quebec too, where the housing market has been historically affordable, there has been a significant decline in affordability over recent years. In Quebec’s largest city, Montreal, new rentals are, on average, 50% higher than the rents in occupied apartments. The vacancy rate is very low, so apartments are hard to find and so some landlords are evicting their current tenants to get a higher income from new tenants. The projected influx of immigration to Canada means the problem will get worse, since new housing construction is not expected to match demand. In this episode of Human Rights Magazine, Joel Sawmadal explores the situation in Montreal. Human Rights Magazine is produced by The Upstream Journal magazine.
