In its report “Stained Trade”, Global Witness claims that indigenous communities across Papua New Guinea (PNG) are experiencing environmental destruction and loss of their livelihoods through land grabs as ancient rainforests are harvested by foreign-owned logging companies. The report contains interviews with local communities as well as responses from companies linked to the global trade of illegally logged timber products from PNG. It highlights how the global timber trade is driving deforestation and abuses of indigenous communities’ rights in the country, and details recommendations for steps to be taken in the US, China and PNG to end the global trade in illegally logged PNG timber.
