Host Astrid Chavelas interviews José Raymundo Díaz Taboada, coordinator of the Collective Against Torture and Impunity (CCTI) in Guerrero. They talk about the hydroelectric dam La Parota, collective organising against this infrastructure project, and the conflicts and divisions it caused among communities around issues of land ownership and displacement of settlements located at the Papagayo river basin. The La Parota hydroelectric project is one of the largest hydroelectric projects planned in the hemisphere. This podcast is in Spanish.
