ABOUT THE PEASANT AND INDIGENOUS PRESS FORUM
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 environmental stories. This initiative provides the tools and connections to both communities in order to create a more holistic, equitable and just storytelling ecosystem. We hope you’ll join us.
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: Press Forums/Workshops on timely issues, a Grassroots Stories and Sources Database, and a Signal Group for emergent frontline news (please reach hyojin@agrowingculture.org for more info).
