Our commitments
- Supporting food sovereignty which is the power of any community to decide freely and autonomously on its production and food system.
- Promoting family farming which uses the family as its primary workforce to produce what its members need, in harmony with nature, and provides a framework for education and job creation through family farms.
- Promoting farmers' seeds selected in the harvest, using endogenous processes that scientific research must support. Highly resilient and productive in agricultural systems based on agro-ecology, farmers' seeds foster exchanges between farmers and extend biodiversity, the basis of our food systems.
- Promoting biodiversity which conserves and enhances the variety and diversity of the living world. Biodiversity recognizes the complementarity of nature's elements, the key to sustainable development.
- The practice of agro-ecology, holistic system that supports the health of ecosystems and relies on functional cycles adapted to local conditions, rather than the use of agrochemical and synthetic inputs.
- Claiming equitable access to resources as the possibility for each person to have equal access to agricultural resources according to their needs, integrating gender parameters.
- The claim of participative governance, or the effective and conscious participation of farmers' organizations and families in the definition, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of agricultural policies.
