Berta Cáceres was a prominent Honduran environmental activist and indigenous leader known for co-founding the Council of Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras (COPINH). Her grassroots efforts successfully halted the Agua Zarca Dam project, earning her the prestigious Goldman Environmental Prize in 2015. Tragically, Cáceres was assassinated in her home in 2016 following multiple threats to her life. An investigation later linked her murder to US-trained elite military units, underscoring the risks confronted by activists in Honduras.
