On July 1, 2022 activists with the Insure Our Future Coalition rallied outside

US insurance broker Marsh McLennan faces a formal complaint claiming that it is
breaching OECD guidelines for responsible business conduct through involvement

The complaint has been filed by US-based Inclusive Development International
(IDI) and 10 human rights and environmental organisations in Uganda and
Tanzania. The groups are staying anonymous due to fear of reprisals.
