Ron Cross, Communications Officer for USC Canada, dropped us a note:
I work for a Canadian NGO – USC Canada – that works primarily on agriculture programs with small-scale farmers in parts of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Working with small local NGOs, we support programs, training, and policies that strengthen biodiversity, food sovereignty, and the rights of those at the heart of resilient food systems – women, indigenous peoples, and small-scale farmers.
In all that we do, we take the view that genetic diversity, created by small-scale farmers, is the planet’s most vital resource, and I would like to ask that you add our website to your list of links.
Happy to oblige. and to take the opportunity to say again that we don’t necessarily endorse all (or any) of the points of view on sites we link to. For example, how can anyone claim that “Terminator” seeds are a serious global threat? But here is not the place for that argument.
