    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the ongoing debate surrounding the construction of the 896-mile East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP), which has been met with objections from civil society groups and European Union parliament due to concerns of human rights violations and the project's potential impact on climate change. The EACOP project, primarily owned by French multinational oil company TotalEnergies, aims to transport crude oil from Uganda to Tanzania, with several pumping stations along the way.
