Land Squeeze

Land is critical to the lives, livelihoods, and food security of millions of people across the world. But a series of unprecedented pressures on global farmland are driving a land squeeze. We are seeing a surge in land inequality, rural poverty, food insecurity, and rural exodus – risking a tipping point for smallholder agriculture.

Join us for this online event to launch the latest IPES-Food report “LAND SQUEEZE” and a dialogue with people giving testimony on their struggles for land on the ground.

Speakers:

• Nettie Wiebe, IPES-Food and La Via Campesina (LVC), Canada
• Susan Chomba, IPES-Food and World Resource Institute (WRI), Kenya
• Dineo Skosana, Society, Work and Politics Institute (SWOP), South Africa
• Rukka Sombolinggi, AMAN, Indonesia

Moderation:

• Jan Urhahn, Rosa Luxemburg Foundation Southern Africa, South Africa

The event will be held in English, French and Spanish with simultaneous interpretation.

The online event is jointly organized by IPES-Food and the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation.
