land occupations

Land occupations refer to situations where individuals or groups take control of land or property without legal permission. This often occurs in contexts where there is a perceived inequality in land distribution, such as in urban areas or regions with a history of land disputes. People may occupy land to assert their rights, demand housing, or protest against government policies. While these actions can draw attention to social issues, they can also lead to legal conflicts and tensions between occupiers and property owners or authorities. The outcomes can vary widely, from eventual legalization to forced eviction.
