We hope that every home will have a plate of food, along with joy and hope for a better world. Our movement renews its commitment to fighting for Life, Social Justice, Peace, and Food Sovereignty for our peoples *Your donations help us remain autonomous!* La Via Campesina depends on funding from our supporters who are committed to the vision of food sovereignty. Your support allows the global movement to remain autonomous and independent of all influences, and to voice our grassroots proposals and demonstrate our agroecological practices in international and national policy-making spaces. We believe that the transformation of our society into a more inclusive and equitable one requires the collective efforts of all who firmly believe in the ideas of social justice and equity. *DONATE <https://click.mailchimp.com/track/click/30010842/donatenow.networkforgood.o…>* *Palestine : A delegation from La Via Campesina in the West Bank witnesses the devastating impacts of the Israeli occupation.* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ During the 10-day visit, the delegation toured key regions, including Nablus, the Jordan Valley, Ramallah, Bethlehem, and Hebron, and met with Palestinian farmers, governors, and representatives from civil society organizations, including women’s cooperatives, youth groups, and human rights advocates. The meetings revealed a bleak reality: systematic policies of home demolitions, land seizures, and restrictions on access to water have devastated the livelihoods of Palestinian farmers and rural communities. *READ MORE <https://click.mailchimp.com/track/click/30010842/viacampesina.org?p=eyJzIjo…>* *Haiti: Devastating floods leave a tragic toll on lives and livelihoods* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Floods have added a new layer of suffering and loss in Haiti, a country already grappling with gang violence and extreme poverty. Today, Haiti is facing one of the worst natural disasters in its history, with devastating floods hitting especially the north, Grande-Anse, and the Northwest. The human and material losses are tragic. Dozens of bodies have already been recovered from the waters. Peasants, who form the backbone of the rural economy, have lost nearly all their crops, as well as animals vital to their livelihood. *READ MORE <https://click.mailchimp.com/track/click/30010842/viacampesina.org?p=eyJzIjo…>* *Nov. 25 – International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women: Stop Violence, Hunger, and War!* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ We affirm that the fight against violence, climate change, and hunger in rural areas requires popular land reforms and the creation of an alternative model of food production worldwide. We seek to radically transform the economy to place the reproduction of life at its center. *READ MORE <https://click.mailchimp.com/track/click/30010842/viacampesina.org?p=eyJzIjo…>* *Baku, COP29: La Via Campesina's Responses to the Climate Crisis* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ False solutions, including carbon markets, offset systems, genetically modified crops, geoengineering megaprojects, "climate-smart agriculture," and "nature-based solutions," reinforce an imperialist development agenda, deepening colonialism and environmental degradation. *READ MORE <https://click.mailchimp.com/track/click/30010842/viacampesina.org?p=eyJzIjo…>* READ ALL NOVEMBER UPDATES <https://click.mailchimp.com/track/click/30010842/viacampesina.org?p=eyJzIjo…> *December 3 – International day for Life and against agrotoxics: Peasant Agroecology ensures Food Sovereignty* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The intensive use of pesticides is one of the main causes of the biodiversity crisis the world is facing.

Affirming peasant agroecology and food sovereignty is essential to preserving life. *READ MORE <https://click.mailchimp.com/track/click/30010842/viacampesina.org?p=eyJzIjo…>* *South Korea: Peasant Unions and Urban Youth Unite to Overcome Police Barriers in ‘Victory at Namtaeryeong’* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Their demands included the abolition of open agricultural policies and urgent social reforms to support small-scale producers.
