Last March 29, farmers, peasants, indigenous peoples, and rights advocates in Asia gathered for this year\u2019s global action of the #DayoftheLandless<\/strong><\/a>, organized by Asian Peasant Coalition (APC), to remember and highlight people\u2019s struggles against exploitation, displacement, and neoliberal policies.<\/p>\n

\u201c[There are] hardly any genuine farmer development and agrarian reform happened on a massive scale. In fact, quite the opposite is happening. Rural people are still largely landless, displaced, living in poverty, and marginalized from access to basic goods and services while profits double and triple for companies to which all the world\u2019s resources are continually concentrating. The Global South\u2019s governments are also largely complicit in this dispossession campaign against the poor,\u201d Cathy Estavillo, APC Secretary General, said during the speak out.<\/p>\n

Farmers also speak out about the effects of imperialism on their daily lives, emphasizing how communities continue to bear the brunt of the ongoing imperialist war in the Middle East, led by the United States and Israel. Ali Gul, a farmer and member of the Pakistan Kissan Mazdoor Tehreek, shared how small-scale farmers in Pakistan are struggling under the weight of this crisis. \u201cToday, as global tensions intensify, we are seeing their effects more clearly than ever. The US and Israeli war imposed on Iran is driving up fuel and fertilizer prices, disrupting supply systems, and pushing small farmers in Pakistan further into debt and food insecurity,\u201d Gul said.<\/p>\n

The participants highlight the significance of the ongoing people\u2019s resistance against imperialist interests to territories and people\u2019s resources. In this post, see how rural communities fight for genuine agrarian reform and defend their land and rights through people-led solutions and movements and how the fight for all human rights \u2013 indigenous peoples\u2019, migrant workers\u2019, women\u2019s, and farmers\u2019 \u2013 are all linked in the fight for land.<\/p>\n
