How to implement UNDROP across Europe

ECVC policy brief "How to implement the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Peasants and Other People Working in Rural Areas (UNDROP) at the European and national level to promote peasants’ rights"

ECVC published (with EU co-funding) a new set of policy recommendations for international and regional organisations, European policy-makers, and national and local authorities, in order to push for the implementation of UN Declaration of the Rights of Peasants and Other People Working in Rural Areas (UNDROP) and promote peasants’ rights.

Agrobiodiversity does of course feature in the policy brief as the right to seeds (Article 19) and the right to biological diversity (Article 20) are among the human rights specific to peasants introduced by UNDROP.

The policy brief is available for downloading.
