Summer Newsletter

Check Out Our New Design!

We’re thrilled to unveil a new website, newsletter design, and updated mission statement. Our dynamic new site features improved platforms and resources, including a searchable publications page that allows visitors to quickly locate resources by topic, region, and crop. While freshening up our online presence, we realized our mission statement needed an update to more clearly communicate the breadth and impact of our work. Our new mission statement is to advance ethical seed solutions to meet food and farming needs in a changing world. We hope you like it, and rest assured that while this language has changed, our program work has not. We remain focused on research, education, and advocacy to help address the organic seed needs of farmers.

Call for Action: Petition-Strengthen Human Rights of Peasants

da Giulia Finocchi | Mag 29, 2017 | agrobiodiversità, Seminare il cambiamento

Call for Action: European E-Petition – Strengthen the Human Rights of Peasants!

Dear Nyéléni Focal Points!

Strengthen the Human Rights of Peasants www.peasantsrights.eu

At the Nyéléni Europe Forum in Cluj the idea for an E-Petition in support of the recognition of Peasants’ Rights was first developed. Now a large coalition for Peasants’ Rights (Hands on the Land partners and Nyéléni Europe) has launched an online petition “Strengthen the Human Rights of Peasants”! This petition asks the EU and its Member States to actively participate in good faith in the elaboration of the “UN Declaration on the Rights of Peasants and other People Working in Rural Areas”. The aim of the petition is to generate citizen support/pressure for a positive change in the EUs attitude towards the Peasant Rights process at the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva.
