in solidarity with Indigenous communities
in Guatemala! | |

Dear
Friends of Land Rights Now,
We invite you
to join us in supporting our newest campaign
#StopEvictions in
Guatemala
Indigenous territories
are once again threatened by widespread
evictions perpetrated against rural communities
by the Guatemalan State and large
agribusinesses.
Courageous land defenders
from Guatemala are fighting for their ancestral
lands, lives, and the environment in a
perilous context for
activists.
In the week
leading up to critical national elections, they
seek international support to secure their land
rights.
To
say YES to indigenous and agrarian justice,
follow and share our campaign content
on Twitter,
Instagram
and Facebook. | |

Land defenders
in Guatemala call
for:
-
An
immediate halt to evictions and the use of
violence against landless rural and Indigenous
families.
-
Prompt
and effective justice for the individuals and
communities criminalized for defending human
rights.
-
An
end to extractive megaprojects and large-scale
agribusinesses in Indigenous territories.
