EAST AFRICAN CRUDE OIL PIPELINE (EACOP) – SCHWARZES GOLD, UMWELTSCHÄDEN UND MENSCHENRECHTE
Im Dezember 2023 kamen die ersten Rohre mit einer Gesamtlänge von 100 Kilometern für den Bau der East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) in Tansania an. Durch das Megaprojekt wollen Uganda und Tansania endlich am Erdöl-Revival in Afrika mitverdienen. Die beiden Länder, so scheint es, wollen es besser machen als andere afrikanische Länder wie Gabun oder Nigeria, in denen sich die anfänglichen Hoffnungen auf ölgetriebenen Wohlstand lediglich für einen kleinen Teil der Bevölkerung realisiert haben. Aber wer sind die Hauptakteure? Welche Rolle spielt die lokale Bevölkerung? Und wer wird von der Pipeline profitieren?
Das erfahrt ihr bei unserer Social Media Themenwoche! Hier geht es zu unserem Instagram-Kanal
