After a brief exploration of landlessness in Brazil and the emergence of the Landless People's Movement (MST), this article examines the educational work of MST in its struggle for land, agrarian reform and a just society. It considers the philosophical and pedagogical principles developed by the MST and describes how these are put into practice in basic adult education, leadership and technical training and the MST's own, independent courses in teacher-training. As an alternative project in 'popular' education, the scale of the MST's work is significant; so too is its relationship with (and impact on) state education. The article contextualises this experience within popular education in Latin America and considers its possible relevance to the UK
