MST political participation in Brazilian elections

Overview

The Landless Workers' Movement (MST) has launched 16 independent candidacies for state and federal parliamentary positions across 13 Brazilian states. This initiative seeks to secure institutional representation to promote land reform, family farming, and food sovereignty through a platform of 15 political guidelines.

In support of these efforts, singer-songwriter Chico Buarque has publicly endorsed MST candidates, emphasizing the importance of voting for those who defend “collective values, solidarity, humanism, justice, and sovereignty.” Buarque has also endorsed other specific candidates, such as Cida Pedrosa, for the Legislative Assembly of Pernambuco.
