About Us :
Save the Mekong coalition brings together non-government organizations, local people, academics, journalists, artists and ordinary people from within the Mekong countries and internationally. Save the Mekong coalition urges the Mekong governments to keep the Mekong flowing freely to save this critical source of food, income and life for present and future generations.
Save the Mekong: Our River Feeds Millions

The Mekong River is under threat. The governments of Cambodia, Laos and Thailand are considering plans to build 11 big hydropower dams on the river's mainstream. If built, these dams would block major fish migrations and dramatically change the Mekong forever, placing at risk the food security and income of millions of people.

Scroll down to sign the petition to keep the Mekong flowing freely!

The Save the Mekong coalition was created to protect the river, its resources and people’s livelihoods, and encourage policymakers to adopt more sustainable ways of meeting people’s energy and water needs. The coalition is formed of non-government organizations, local groups and ordinary people who all share a concern about the future of the Mekong River.

The Save the Mekong coalition is calling on the Prime Ministers of Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam to keep the Mekong flowing freely to save this critical source of food, income and life for present and future generations. From March until early June, coalition members will be collecting signed postcards from people in the countries who would be affected by the projects and around the world. You can show your support by adding your name to the corresponding online petition asking the governments to Save the Mekong and protect the livelihoods of those who depend on it.

Please take action now to Save the Mekong. Sign the petition to the Prime Ministers of Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam and urge them to keep the Mekong flowing freely.



To the Prime Ministers of Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam.

CC: Mekong River Commission Council, Mekong country donors

I am writing to express my concern about plans to build hydropower dams on the Mekong River’s mainstream that will impact the river’s environment and natural resources, including natural flow, biodiversity and ecosystem. Please listen to the voice of the Mekong’s people and keep the Mekong flowing freely, saving this critical source of food and income for millions of us. Please consider better ways to meet our electricity needs and avoid creating cross-border impacts and disputes.
