Inside the World's Most Hidden Conflict

West Papua has been occupied by Indonesia since 1963 and is largely closed to foreign journalists and human rights monitors. It is also home to Grasberg, one of the largest gold and copper mines on earth, where the US company Freeport-McMoRan turned a sacred mountain into a pit and dumps huge amounts of waste into the rivers below.

Inside the World’s Most Hidden Conflict explains how West Papua came under Indonesian rule, how its forests are being cleared for palm oil and sugar plantations, and how Papuans resist, from raising the banned Morning Star flag, which can bring up to 15 years in prison, to armed struggle.
