In recent years, poverty and inequality have been on the rise again in Nicaragua. In rural Terrabona, one of the poorest regions of the country, the food security is threatened. The challenges of adapting agriculture to climatic changes are great and the opportunities of the population are few. Agroecology shows smallholder families a way out of the impasse. 

On June 13, SWISSAID Geneva and Jai Jagat International invite you to a roundtable discussion on the challenges that international trade rules represent for peasant families. Starting from an international level, the discussion will focus on the specific case of India.

For almost 75 years, SWISSAID has been fighting for a world in which hunger no longer exists. Agroecology is SWISSAID’s solution of choice for achieving this ambitious goal. Thanks to this method of sustainable agriculture, many farming families have managed to reduce their outgoings and secure their food supply while respecting the environment at the same time.
