JOIN US IN WORKING WITH FRONTLINE COMMUNITIES AROUND THE WORLD.
Through this initiative, we work to bridge the gap between journalists and frontline communities — in order to elevate their perspectives in narratives. Peasant and Indigenous communities are vital sources and partners in storytelling when it comes to food, climate and environment stories. This initiative provides tools, connections, story ideas, training to both communities in aims to create a more holistic, equitable and just storytelling ecosystem. We hope you’ll join us.
Despite the knowledge, active work and solutions of frontline, peasant and Indigenous communities — their stories and perspectives are often underreported and silenced in their attempts to address many of the world’s most pressing issues.
Indigenous, peasant and smallholder farmers feed the majority of the world and sustain 80% of the world’s biodiversity. They hold the wisdom of how to relate to land and grow food in ways that address hunger, protect culture, guarantee livelihoods, and sustain biodiversity. Due to lack of access, their perspectives and stories often go underreported, and their solutions under resourced.
We invite you to connect with peasant, Indigenous and grassroots communities and their stories by joining in this initiative.
The initiative includes: bi-monthly Press Forums/Workshops, a Grassroots Stories and Sources Database, and a Signal Group for emergent frontline news (please reach josh@agrowingculture.org for more info).
