Lensidede or Lessé Dédé, is a Surinamese village on an island in the Lawa River, near the Lensidede rapids after which the village was named. In the village live Wayana people.[2]
History
[edit | edit source]The Lawa River forms the border between Suriname and French Guiana, and islands are ambiguous. Both France and Suriname claimed the village.[3] In 2021, the islands in the river were demarcated.[4] Lensidede has been placed in Suriname under the authority of Ipomadi Pelenapïn, the Surinamese chief of the Lawa River.[5][6]
