Asset manager Vanguard is complicit in human rights abuses through direct financing of extractive industries causing irreparable damage to our climate and harming frontline and Indigenous communities.
Petroperú is attempting to drill on Indigenous Achuar and Wampis territories in Peru without the community’s Free, Prior, and Informed Consent. As the oil company seeks financing from banks and asset managers – including Vanguard – now is the moment to demand an end to these irresponsible and damaging investments.
Last Friday, leaders from these Indigenous communities sent an open letter to Vanguard expressing their deep concerns about investments in Petroperú. Join us and sign a message of support demanding an end to the financing of Petroperú's destruction!
Later this month, Amazon Watch will accompany a delegation of Indigenous and affected communities from Peru to Vanguard’s headquarters in Malvern, Pennsylvania. There we will deliver your signatures demanding an end to Vanguard’s purchasing of toxic bonds from Petroperú.
Add your name to the letter today!
