Content: La Via Campesina and FSPI organized the Asia and Pacific People’s Conference on Rice
and Food Sovereignty in Jakarta (14-18 May 2006) to forge a common vision of food sovereignty among the Asian members of our movement. The goal was to strengthen the peasant’s position against the liberalization of agriculture and to develop a comprehensive alternative concept of food production that does not marginalize peasants.
