You want to host an event during the European Days of Action? We have just the idea for you.🎥 Host a screening of "The Unseen" and start the conversation. Together, we can make visible the people who grow, harvest and pack our food and push for a food system rooted in justice, dignity and fairness.

Will our elected representatives choose our health, or protect corporate mega profits? That’s what’s at stake right now. While farmers, children & families get harmed by pesticide exposure, European institutions rush through legislation that would remove safeguards & allow unlimited approvals.

Climate change, fuelled by Big Ag and fossil fuels, is pushing food prices up! Agriculture makes up 12% of EU emissions, yet agribusiness lobbyists block real climate action, like controlling harmful and dangerous levels of industrial animal production. #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness #EUAgriFoodDays

A handful of corporations control what we eat - and profit from it. Seeds, pesticides, machinery, carbon credits, fertilisers, even poultry genetics. That’s not free choice - that’s corporate monopolies. #EUAgriFoodDays #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness
