• FIAN: Human Rights Situation in Bajo Aguán, Honduras
  By hondurashumanrights.wordpress.com : June 13, 2010
  Concerned about human rights violations in the wake of agrarian conflict between landowners and farmers, FIAN Honduras has intensified its visits in situ to verify the allegations they often receive. The findings are dramatic. Poverty and violent actions that claim human lives have increased. In the Lower Aguán, this year alone, 10 people have been reported dead, there are reports of threats and direct intervention of repressive forces of the state against peasant leaders and popular organizations; both situations that are directly linked to the agrarian problem.

  I was conducting research near San Pedro Sula the last time Honduras went to the mundial, and remember vividly the way that it united people and completely absorbed their attention. While understanding that this event has a special status for those in Honduras, I have been noticing how little attention the world press has been able to pay to actual political developments in Honduras, in contrast with the wall-to-wall coverage of its world cup participation.
