Our work with communities affected by agrochemicals is expanding. From the experience of working with the affected communities, we were able to notice the causes that originate the problem of application against agrochemicals.
In this sense, we began to investigate the agro-industrial production model and its impacts, and the alternatives to this production system, including agroecology.
In addition to updating the agrochemical emergency website, we began research on the agroecological alternative and its real expressions in the community of Córdoba. In that order, we are carrying out various investigations in order to know the degree of participation of women and diverse identities in the production, marketing and distribution of agroecological products and the public policies that strengthen or impede their development. Likewise, we continue to work with the affected communities.
However, in the coming months we will begin a new mapping update process to incorporate the new conflictive situations detected during this year.
