We repeat our call.

Humanitarian and healthcare workers must be protected.

This was a rare opportunity to reflect on food sovereignty, starvation, international law, anti-colonialism, human rights and politics in the same conversation. It was a pleasure chatting with the Makdisi brothers.

Haha the bouncing little girl clamoring for a second sandwich:
'This one's mine! Because I haven't had enough yet! Because it's so delicious!' ❤️ 🥰

#PeasantsRights NOW La Via Campesina (Official EN)

Today marks the anniversary of the Siege of Sarajevo. The “official” start of the Bosnian Genocide.

Almost 4 years of being cut off from the world, from food and water and electricity. 4 years of daily shelling, bombing, and terrorising campaigns of the city and its residents.

the siege of sarajevo started 32 years ago today. in the 1,425 days of the siege over 1,600 children were killed. the effects of this are still felt today. in the 181 days of israel's latest attack on gaza 14,000 children have been killed. i find this loss incomprehensible.

This is an exciting new website that creates a centre-point for knowledge around the UN Declaration on the Rights of Peasants and Other Peoples Working in Rural Areas

Thanks Al Jazeera English for these questions on the United Nations Human Rights Council Resolution passed today, with 28 votes in favour, finally demanding *accountability* for *internaitonal crimes* & an immediate *halt to arms sales and transfers*.

Lack of accountability so far also killed civilians!
