African Institute of Energy Governance and Their Fight Against the East African Crude Oil Pipeline


Dickens Kamugisha is the founder of the African Institute for Energy Governance and today we discuss the East African Crude Oil Pipeline, which is a nearly 900 pipeline under construction cutting through Uganda and Tanzania.  On today's show, Dickens discusses the egregious land grabs that have resulted in the massive displacement of impoverished people in eastern Africa.  We discuss the many human rights, environmental, and national security implications of the pipeline and what it means for the people of East Africa and the world. 



A weekly series produced by Steven Jay and hosted by Jeff Van Treese, Mobilized takes a deep look at our world, the consequences of human activity on our planet, and how we can reverse and prevent existing and future crises from occurring. Mobilized reveals life on our planet as a system of systems that all work together for the optimal health of the whole. The show delves into deep conversations with change-makers so people can clearly take concerted action.
