*The new edition of the Nyéléni Newsletter is now online!*
*Read the first edition of the newsletter about the situation of one
region!This edition explores the relation between Food Justice and Food
Sovereignty in the *
*United States.Food Sovereignty* emerged as La ViaCampesina’s bold response
to the “free trade” regimes destroying livelihoods around the world.
It’s been taken up widely by communities around the World reeling from the
spread of agrofuels, GMOs, land grabs and the “privatization of everything.”
Food Sovereignty reflects the deep resistance of people’s historical
struggles against exploitation, oppression and colonization.
When communities fighting for their rights discover the principles of food
sovereignty, their reaction is often “Yes! That’s what we’re doing!”
*Food justice* is one such struggle. The radical roots of food justice in
the United States are deep in the movement for Black Liberation.

Nutrition and Food Sovereignty*
<http://www.nyeleni.org/ccount/click.php?id=68>
*The new edition of the Nyéléni Newsletter is now online!*
Human nutrition refers to the interaction between food and the human body,
and the resulting health and wellbeing of individuals.
The best source of nutrition continues to be breastfeeding and diversified
rich traditional foods developed by cultures throughout history.
Nutrition is only one of the dimensions of eating linked to human health.
The best way to guarantee adequate nutrition is through the provision of
diversified, safe, and balanced diets, based on local fresh
produce which is agroecologically produced, and prepared according to
cultural practices.
*Nutrition cannot be separated from food, production models, food systems
or eating practices.*

Rights to Natural Resources* <http://www.nyeleni.org/ccount/click.php?id=65>
*The new edition of the Nyéléni Newsletter is now online!*
As the world lurches from crisis to crisis, the value of land, water,
forests, minerals and other natural resources as sources of wealth creation
continues to rise. For those with long-standing ties to land, water and
territories, nature’s greatest wealth and value is life itself, and these
crises simply confirm the necessity for humans to live symbiotically with
nature. However for many, natural resources are things that can be
parceled, packaged, changed, bought, sold and traded in markets far away
from the original location of the resource.
*In this edition of *
*Nyéléni learn more how peoples across the world are fighting to secure and
*
*defend their rights to natural resources and the rights of nature. *
