The Declaration on the Rights of Peasants (UNDROP; full title: United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Peasants and Other People Working in Rural Areas) is a United Nations General Assembly resolution on human rights with "universal understanding", adopted by the United Nations in 2018.[1] The resolution was passed by a vote of 121-8, with 54 members abstaining.

The Declaration lays down a series of rights for peasants, and has often been seen as complementing the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
