Animation
Land conflicts in five minutes
Narrated by award-winning writer Itamar Vieira Junior
In this animation we invite you to reflect on the relationship between soya and cattle farming and violence; how agribusiness, mining, and energy generation may be linked to violent conflicts in the countryside; and how poor policymaking underpins all these issues, issues which have led hundreds of activists such as Dorothy Stang and Chico Mendes to die in defence of the forests.
