Stop #landrights Fraud!<\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nEvery spring since 1999, the World Bank has organized the \u201cConference on Land and Poverty,\u201d that brings together corporations, governments and civil society groups. Yet hundreds of civil society organizations denounce the World Bank\u2019s role in global land grabs and its deceitful leadership on land issues. Rather than providing solutions to poverty and promoting shared prosperity, as per the Bank\u2019s mission, the recommendations put forth by the Bank clearly prioritize the interests and agendas of donors and corporate advisors over the well-being of smallholder farmers, pastoralists, and Indigenous Peoples.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Our Land Our Business<\/i>\u00a0campaign has been critical of the World Bank\u2019s\u00a0Doing Business<\/i>\u00a0report<\/a>\u00a0and accompanying\u00a0\u00a0advisory services<\/a>. Through these, the Bank uses its financial and political might to force countries to adopt \u201cbusiness-friendly\u201d reforms, which create conditions that make it as easy as possible for agribusiness corporations to get access to developing countries\u2019 land and natural resources.<\/p>\n

We therefore call on all stakeholders to reject the Bank\u2019s sham Conference on Land and Poverty and denounce its attempt to influence land governance for the benefits of a few.<\/p>\n

What People Say:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The World Bank’s approach to land rights in the developing world undermines its very mandate to fight poverty by putting the interests of foreign investors and corporations before those of locals.\u201d\u00a0<\/em>– Human Rights Council Ethiopia<\/p>\n

\u201cIn no country of the world a bank decides about policy issues. International land policies should be discussed and adopted in a more democratic and legitimate setting than a bank controlled by few donors.\u201d <\/em>– FIAN Belgium<\/p>\n

“Platform Aarde Boer Consument onderschrijft dit protest en vindt dat de Wereldbank de belangen van de gewone boeren die in Azi\u00eb en Sub-Sahara Afrika\u00a0die 80% van de voedselvoorziening voor hun rekening nemen met voeten treedt. De Wereldbank is geen democratisch bestuurde bank en heeft dus niet het recht om haar grote financi\u00eble macht (deels te danken aan onze belastingbijdrages) in te zetten voor het bedrijfsleven in plaats van voor een duurzame toekomst.\u201d\u00a0<\/em>– Platform Earth Farmer Consumer, Netherlands.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough its investment policy, its Doing Business Ranking and its support to the G8\u2019s New Alliance, the World Bank has rather proved to be a champion of agribusiness corporations than the poor. Their support of large scale agriculture is wreaking havoc in developing countries:\u00a0 eviction of farmers and pastoralists from their land, destruction of local land tenure systems and \u00a0food cultures, increase of unemployment and alteration of the local ecosystem.\u201d<\/i> – Africa-Europe Faith and Justice Network.<\/p>\n
