Dying for Land in Brazil: UBC student project in New York Times

The newest project out of the UBC School of Journalism’s International Reporting Program (IRP) has been published as a two-part series for The New York Times. The IRP explores how Brazil’s economic interests clash with efforts to protect the environment and preserve ancestral aboriginal land. As a result, many people have been killed, put on death lists or chased off their land.

The entire series is available on http://www.internationalreporting.org/landbrazil.
