This year\u2019s theme \u201cHand in Hand for Healthy Futures: Empowering Rural Women & Safeguarding Our Children through Agroecology\u201d, links to the global call to secure safe and sustainable food systems with the crucial role of rural women and youth in shaping agroecological solutions. This year\u2019s campaign also underscores the urgent need to phase out hazardous pesticides and replace them with agroecological practices that restore ecosystems, build community resilience, and ensure a healthy, poison-free future for the next generation.<\/div>\n
