Planting Peace

This line of work aims to support rural communities in transitioning from chemical crops to organic agriculture, empowering them to recognize their social and indispensable role as food producers. This work is carried out in an integrated, organized, and sustainable manner, starting from the identification of agronomic, logistical, and social difficulties in each territory and individually on the properties of the beneficiaries, in order to enhance resources and strengths. The goal is to form work cooperatives that can have a lasting impact over time in an organized manner.
