    June, 2022
    South America, Brazil

    Sob o governo Bolsonaro, a Fundação Nacional do Índio (Funai) tem implementado uma política que cabe chamar de anti-indigenista. Contraditório, chocante, mas verdadeiro, esse é o tema do dossiê que se apresenta, fruto da parceria entre a Indigenistas Associados (INA), associação de servidores da Funai fundada em 2017, e o Instituto de Estudos Socioeconômicos (Inesc), organização não governamental atuante há 42 anos nos espaços de discussão de políticas públicas, direitos humanos e orçamento.

    Driving Dispossession: The Global Push to “Unlock the Economic Potential of Land,” sounds the alarm on the unprecedented wave of privatization of natural resources that is underway around the world. Through six case studies — Ukraine, Zambia, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, Sri Lanka, and Brazil — the report details the myriad ways by which governments — willingly or under the pressure of financial institutions and Western donor agencies — are putting more land into so-called “productive use” in the name of development.

    Around 2.5 billion people – 30 percent of the world’s population – live in the dry areas, which cover more than 40 percent of the world’s land surface. Scarce natural resources, land degradation and frequent droughts severely challenge food production in these areas. Both North Africa (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia) and the North East of Brazil fall under arid and semi-arid climate. Cacti have developed phenological, physiological and structural adaptations for growth and survival in arid environments where they have multiple functions (food, feed, soil conservation, etc.).

    This report uses household-level data from 33, mostly developing, countries to analyse perceptions of tenure insecurity among women. We test two hypotheses: (1) that women feel more insecure than men; and (2) that increasing statutory protections for women, for instance by issuing joint named titles or making inheritance law more gender equal, increases de facto tenure security.
