Women left out of talks after evictions: report
While women are at the frontline of land-use protests, they are underrepresented in post-eviction negotiation processes, a new research paper shows.
The study, entitled Gendered eviction, protest and recovery: a feminist political ecology engagement with land grabbing in rural Cambodia and published last week in the Journal of Peasant Studies, looked at protests and post-eviction negotiations during a land dispute between villagers, the government and Vietnamese rubber company Binh Phuoc II in Snuol district in Kratie province.
