Western Sahara/Morocco: Foum El Oued Wind Park
In 2012, Siemens won the rights construct a wind farm in Western Sahara. The local indigenous population, the Saharawis, were allegedly not consulted and claim that Siemens and Navera Holding violated international law by occupying their land, infringing upon the people’s rights to self-determination. Africa Contact, a Danish NGO, claims that all trade with Western Sahara legitimises Morocco’s illegal occupation of Western Sahara, and sent a letter calling on Siemens to cancel the deal.
Siemens responded to the concerns stating that they did not infringe the right of self-determination or any other human right, and that a working infrastructure will help to improve the economic conditions in the area.
