Maritjie Kailey: Fighting for Land Rights and against Human Trafficking in Indonesia
From the Classroom to the Frontlines
Defending land rights
With the increasing global reduction of land and resources there is a growing focus on the interaction between Business and Human Rights (B&HR). Kenya is no exception and also struggles with cases of land grabbing, diminishing natural resources and the involvement of private companies in human rights violations. In the past, PBI Kenya supported various HRDs and communities with cases that concern access to ancestral land, issues relating to (recognition of) land titles and malpractice or even threats made by business entities.
