In Central America, Migration Is Not The Crisis Earlier this month, a Honduran court found David Castillo, a U.S.-trained former Army intelligence officer and the head of an internationally financed hydroelectric company, guilty of the 2016 murder of celebrated Indigenous activist Berta Cáceres. His company was building a dam that threatened the traditional lands and water sources of the Indigenous Lenca people. For years, Cáceres and her organization, the Council of Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras, or COPINH, had led the struggle to halt that project. It turned out, however, that Cáceres s international recognition — she won the prestigious Goldman Environmental Prize in 2015 — couldn t protect her from becoming one of the dozens of Latin American Indigenous and environmental activists killed annually.
