“La Vía Campesina is a network of social movements with a very horizontal structure. You could say we're a movement of movements." —Amaru Faustino Torrez Ruiz is a member of Climate Justice Collective and a youth delegate to La Vía Campesina from Nicaragua.
The peasant youth who are fighting to remain on the land and feed their communities around the world are defying expectations and reshaping what it means to be a peasant farmer today. Their stories challenge old ideas of what a farmer looks like, and ask us to imagine a movement bold enough to shift its politics to meet them.
