Agroecology is the struggle for human rights | Cantos do Sabiá

João Lucas França – Broadcaster and communicator for the Sabiá Center.

December 10 is the day of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, a date to reflect on our rights, such as access to water, land and food in quantity and quality.

And those of us who talk about agroecology, who defend free planting, free of poisons, pesticides and violence, with land for decent planting, must always remember: the fight for human rights is also the fight for agroecology.

Without human rights, there is no room for family farming and agroecology. That’s why today we’re talking about these rights, this date, this declaration.

And we talk about agroecology as a struggle for human rights. To discuss this very important topic, we invited Elisabeth Cardoso, agroecological agronomist, master in agroecology, black, feminist and human rights defender, to Cantos.
