Berkeley, August 15, 2007

Dear friends and colleagues,

Warm greetings. Please take action to prevent construction of dams in the
Changinola River Basin in Panama, and support the Naso and Ngobe indigenous
peoples' struggle to defend their rights and livelihoods.

Please endorse this letter prepared by the Center for Biological Diversity
addressed to the US-based AES Corporation, which is planning to build three
dams on the Changuinola River.  The hydroelectric dams threaten the La Amistad
International Park World Heritage site (PILA in Spanish), its rich
biodiversity, and the future of indigenous Naso and Ngobe indigenous groups
living on the Park's border.

Please send the name of a representative of your organization, name of your
organization, address, e-mail address and name of country to:

Jason Gray <mailto:jgray@lclark.edu>jgray@lclark.edu

Thank you,

Monti Aguirre
Latin America Program Coordinator
