Movimento dos Trabalhadores Sem Terra (MST)

The Movimento dos Trabalhadores Sem Terra (MST) is a social movement in Brazil advocating for land reform and the rights of landless rural workers. Founded in 1984, MST seeks fair distribution of land to promote sustainable farming and reduce inequality. They organize land occupations, promoting agroecology and rural education, aiming to empower marginalized communities and create more equitable access to resources. The movement emphasizes social justice, environmental sustainability, and democratic participation in land and resource management.
