Research brief: The implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Peasants and Other People Working in Rural Areas
“The implementation of the UNDROP represents a unique opportunity to re-balance power relations in rural areas, and to guarantee that states will respect, protect and fulfil the rights of peasants and other people working in rural areas, who have too often been marginalised within international, regional and national laws and policies”.
