On Earth Day 2022, PAN Asia Pacific launches the first issue of CounterPoint, a policy paper on global and regional issues related to people’s food sovereignty and elimination of pesticide harms.
Entitled “Transforming agriculture: Agroecology and the right to land,” CounterPoint’s initial issue centres on the tenets of agroecology as an important pillar of an alternative food system to profit-driven, chemical-intensive industrial agriculture.
Highlighted in CounterPoint’s first issue are case studies, methodologies, and analyses in promoting agroecology for food sovereignty, agrarian reform, and sustainable agriculture.
By tackling agroecology through the lens of peasants’ rights to land and resources, CounterPoint is PAN Asia Pacific’s contribution to ongoing discourse among civil society, people’s movements, and policymakers.
