VI Women Assembly of the CLOC-LVC: Declaration

Ten years after the historical day when, in the Niceto Perez School of the ANAP, CLOC-Vía Campesina declared that peasant men and women in Latin America pave the way for socialism, women stood up and shouted with all our strength that WITHOUT FEMINISM THERE IS NO SOCIALISM.

The VI Peasant Women Assembly was part of the VII Congress of the Latin America Coordination of Peasant Organizations, CLOC-Via Campesina, which took place in the municipality of Güira de Melena, province of Artemisa, Cuba. It gathered together women delegates of our organizations in 21 countries, inspired by the historical breakthroughs of Cuban women and the revolutionary spirit of Vilma Espin, Celia Sanchez and their people. We met to continue walking down our historical path, the one that has kept alive the resistance of women from the countryside in the face of the patriarchal and capitalist system.
