We Effect work to end poverty worldwide. The core strategy is to strengthen cooperatives of women and men living in poverty through membership-based democracy, long-term economic thinking, social responsibility and transparency. This results in increased income for families, food on the table and a roof over their heads – enabling people to raise themselves out of poverty for good.
Smallholder Farmers Demand Climate Justice at the UN Climate Change Conference
With 80% of farmers globally being smallholder farmers, providing 30% of the world’s food production, a healthy, safe and predictable environment is crucial to continue to live off their lands and secure the right to food. Unfortunately, the impacts of climate change are becoming more and more evident for smallholder farmers, who bear the brunt of the crisis while having done very little to contribute to its causes.
In this position paper We Effect together with Vi Agroforestry demand climate justice for smallholder farmers.
