Climate Caravan, November-2011
Do you want to join us?

Bangladesh Krishok Federation and Bangladesh Kishani Sabha believe in internationalization of the struggle. Thus the struggle of the right of peasants, laborers, landless, indigenous, fisher folk, women and youth is not an isolated one, it is rather closely connected with struggle of emancipation of the working people all over the world. This is why, BKF and BKS are intimately involved in different international action and radical networks including La Via Campesina, Asian Peasant Coalition, Peoples Global Action, etc.

As Bangladesh Krishok Federation and Bangladesh Kishani Sabha on the one hand hosted and attended different international programs successfully, on the other hand, activists in behalf of working people of various countries visited Bangladesh to get to know of the struggle of BKF and BKS, to express solidarity, achieve knowledge on land occupation movement.

Below is the news of some international program organized by BKF and BKS and that of some international activist visit:
