🌍🤝 Brasil, FIAN Colombia , and FIAN International are organizing a series of political alignment seminars as collective learning spaces to strengthen shared analysis and build common strategies across our organizations.

📚 The first seminar, held in March, focused on Racism in Food Systems.

During the discussion, we explored how racism is not merely an individual prejudice—it is a structural system embedded in science, culture, religion, and law, perpetuating poverty, mass incarceration, and food insecurity.

🌱 Key topics included:
▪️ Food sovereignty and racial justice
▪️ The right to land and territory
▪️ The traditional knowledge of Afro-descendant communities
▪️ The structural roots of inequality in food systems
▪️ The urgent need to move beyond being “non-racist” and actively embrace anti-racism

✊🏿 One of the central takeaways was clear: it is not enough to simply reject racism—we must actively challenge and dismantle it.

⬆️ Swipe through the cards for a summary of the main reflections and discussions from the seminar.

🌱 The right to food is being advanced through action, organizing, and community resistance.

Across Europe and Latin America, people are building momentum for stronger protections of human rights, land rights, and food sovereignty.

In Europe, advocacy around the Right to Food European Citizens’ Initiative is pushing for greater recognition of the right to food and stronger public accountability.

🌎 In Latin America, communities continue defending their territories and livelihoods:
✊ A landmark court victory for peasant land rights in Ecuador.
✊ Stronger community organizing led by women in Honduras.
✊ Advances in Indigenous territorial rights and food sovereignty in Brazil.

These victories remind us that lasting change happens when communities organize, claim their rights, and shape public policies.

🌾 Food sovereignty starts with people.

From Indonesia to Sri Lanka, from Chad to West Africa, communities are defending their lands, seeds, livelihoods, and right to food.

🇮🇩 In Indonesia, families are resisting land dispossession and the loss of traditional farming systems caused by large-scale development projects.

🇱🇰 In Sri Lanka, street vendors continue to fight for recognition and protection while providing affordable food to thousands of people.

✊ In Africa, women leaders, peasant organizations, and grassroots movements are building collective power through feminist organizing and regional exchanges on seed sovereignty and food justice.

Real change happens when communities shape the decisions that affect their food systems.

🎣 The people who feed us must not be pushed aside.

Around the world, 600 million fisher peoples play a crucial role in ensuring food and nutrition for millions. Yet their rivers, coasts, lakes, and territories are increasingly threatened by land and water grabbing, climate change, and industrial aquaculture.

🌊 Rising seas.
🏭 Expanding industrial projects.
🚫 Restrictions that undermine traditional livelihoods.

In our Annual Report 2025, we share how fisher communities are organizing, resisting, and bringing their struggles to international human rights spaces.

✊ Because defending the right to food means defending the rights of those who sustain our food systems.

🚨 Did you know?

🌱 70% of the world's farmland is controlled by just 1% of large-scale farms.

🏞️ Since 2000, corporations and financial investors have acquired 65 million hectares of land—an area about twice the size of Germany.

Behind these numbers are communities facing displacement, loss of livelihoods, environmental destruction, and growing hunger.

In our Annual Report 2025, we highlight the findings of Lords of the Land, a groundbreaking report exposing how land concentration fuels inequality and threatens the right to food.

✊ The solution is not more corporate control. It is agrarian reform, redistribution, and policies that put people, communities, and food sovereignty first.

💜 Women are reclaiming power.

Across Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean, rural and Indigenous women—and gender-diverse people—are organizing, resisting, and leading struggles for food sovereignty and justice.

🌱 In Chad, women leaders came together to turn their experiences of exclusion and rights violations into collective action.

🌽 In Mexico, the Feminist School Sowers of Life and Resistance connected women from 12 countries to strengthen leadership, solidarity, and grassroots movements.

✊ Across regions, women are asserting their rights over land, food systems, and care economies.

Because food sovereignty is about much more than food—it is about dignity, participation, autonomy, and transforming power relations.
