peasants' rights

Peasants' rights refer to the entitlements and protections granted to rural, agricultural workers, particularly in developing countries. These rights include access to land, fair wages, safe working conditions, and the ability to organize and advocate for better conditions. They also encompass the right to sustainably manage natural resources and participate in decision-making processes that affect their lives and communities. Recognizing and upholding these rights is vital for ensuring food security, social justice, and rural development, as it empowers peasants to improve their livelihoods and enhances their role in society.
