Land conflicts are abundant, caused by degradation and transformation of land surfaces caused by climate change, as well as land investments by domestic investors with disputed legitimacy.

Represión para extraer el litio de los territorios del pueblo kolla y atacama.

Violencia para explotar Vaca Muerta en territorio mapuche.

Judicialización para desalojar y fumigar con agrotóxicos a familias campesinas y poblaciones invadidas por el agronegocio.
