“…Social movements have provided important inspirations for the discussion on the global civilizational crisis (Cusicanqui, 2018;Estermann, 2012;Leinius, 2021;Millán, 2013;Svampa, 2010). Critiques of the development model, the consequences of exacerbated capitalism, and the links between patriarchy and extractivism have become a fundamental part of academic debates and social struggles in Latin America (Leinius, 2021).

This article explores the political role of rural and indigenous women in the context of the socio-environmental, health and political crises in Chile, where social movements have pressured the political establishment to decisively move towards a change in Chile’s constitutional foundations. The study analyses the historical political demands and strategies of the National Association of Rural and Indigenous Women (ANAMURI) as a case of the women’s peasant movement with a relevant political role in shaping the social demands in the face of the crises. Following the political ecology of food through the decolonial and ecofeminist perspective and the social movement theory, findings indicate the current relevance of rural and indigenous women as political actors of change, a relevance that has been neglected for most of Chile’s history. With their leadership and socially grounded demands, peasant and indigenous women are influencing the political agenda decisively using strategies that are shared with other peasant movements in Latin America. Rural and indigenous women are fundamental political actors that should undoubtedly be considered when studying struggles for social change in the 21st century.
