Greens/EFA Food Campaign
Food is essential. We need it for our lives,
health and well-being.
Good food requires good food policies. We
need to take a holistic approach to food policy
that includes the right of the poor to feed
themselves, that reflects the sustainability
and diversity of agriculture and that shares
responsibility between farmers, fishers and
the general public for fair prices and fair trade.
The Greens/EFA Food campaign is our
invitation to you to join us in our fight for
increased public awareness, personal
engagement and participative democracy
in determining and improving food policies
throughout Europe.
Through this campaign we aim to provoke public
debate and take action on issues which concern
us. These include sustainable farming and
fishing; animal welfare; biodiversity conservation
and sustainable use of natural resources; the
fight against GMO contamination and against
patenting of life forms; promoting fair trade
and local food systems; priority for food over
industrial energy crops; organic farming; and
an awareness of the risks of abuse by large
retailers and food waste.
Use our attractive postcards to provoke public
debate and local activism, and also to raise
public pressure on national governments and
the EU institutions.
Do you want to support the campaign for a
European food policy that promotes tasty,
sustainable and healthy food?
