ICARRD+20: Land grabs and false climate solutions

Published : February 23, 2026

As we head toward the Second International Conference on Agrarian Reform and Rural Development (ICARRD+20) on 24-28 February in Cartagena, Colombia, farmers and Indigenous Peoples across Asia are being pushed off their lands in the name of “climate action.” From carbon offsets and mega-dams to plantations and so-called green infrastructure, false climate solutions have become new tools for land grabbing – destroying livelihoods, violating ancestral domains, and undermining food sovereignty. 

There is no climate justice without the people’s right to land! 

Land to the tillers! Genuine agrarian reform and rural development now!
