 Mozambique's Movement to End Land GrabsLemos, Anabela; Adler, Simone (eds.) http://www.towardfreedom.com/30-archives/africa/4192-mozambique-s-movement-to-end-land-grabsPublisher: Toward Freedom Date Written: 04/03/2016 Year Published: 2016 Resource Type: Article Cx Number: CX19008 To corporations, the forest is only business. To communities, the forest is everything: trees, medicine, culture, spirituality. Land-grabbing and the removal of communities from forests and land breaks the community, displaces access to food and water, and uproots the connection to nature and [local] knowledge. There is an old saying in Africa: the land doesn’t belong to us; it belongs to our children, and the children of our children. Subject Headings |
