Peasant Rights and Taking Care of Mother Earth

April is a significant time for peasant and indigenous women, with two international days that recognize their contribution and efforts to maintain the health and wellbeing of people and the planet. April 17th is the International Day of Peasant Struggle while April 22nd marks International Mother Earth Day. These two days resonate strongly with the mission and vision of the African Women’s Collaborative for Healthy Food Systems which seeks to recreate and promote a way of life that respects, takes care of and restores Mother Earth and her resources while benefiting African people and their communities.


Le mois d’avril est une période importante pour les paysannes et les femmes autochtones, avec deux journées internationales qui reconnaissent leur contribution et leurs efforts pour maintenir la santé et le bien-être des personnes et de la planète. Le 17 avril est la Journée internationale de la lutte paysanne tandis que le 22 avril marque la Journée internationale de la Terre Mère. Ces deux jours résonnent fortement avec la mission et la vision du Collaboratif des femmes africaines pour des systèmes alimentaires sains qui cherche à recréer et à promouvoir un mode de vie qui respecte, prend soin et restaure la Terre Mère et ses ressources tout en bénéficiant aux Africains et à leurs communautés.
