Description
Abstract
En junio de 2008 convocamos un foro-taller en Chiapas, México para potencializar alianzas
entre organizaciones campesinas, conservacionistas y académicos. Los ponentes trazaron la
evolución de las relaciones entre sistemas productivos, bosques y biodiversidad desde la época
prehispánica hasta la actual crisis de la economía neoliberal y la agricultura industrial. También
delinearon un nuevo paradigma para la conservación en donde los campesinos son protagonistas.
En grupos de trabajo, elaboramos propuestas para cimentar una agenda común entre los
distintos sectores representados. Las redes de cooperación emergieron como estructuras para
coordinar acción y facilitar el intercambio de información y apoyo a distintas escalas geográficas.
Los mercados solidarios son la confluencia de diversos intereses en dónde se pueden constituir
dichas redes. También identificamos algunos temas específicos de trabajo, entre ellos: los agrocombustibles
y la soberanía energética, los servicios ambientales y la educación para el campo. La
biodiversidad y la soberanía alimentaria y territorial son los ejes de esta agenda de cooperación,
que forma parte de una lucha internacional para reconstruir nuestros sistemas alimenticios.
Abstract: In June, 2008, we convoked a forum and workshop in Chiapas, Mexico to strengthen alliances among farmers’ organizations, conservationists and academics. Speakers outlined the evolution of the relations among production systems, forests and biodiversity from the prehispanic era through the current crisis in the neoliberal economic model and industrial agriculture. They also framed a new conservation paradigm that prioritizes the role of farmers. We formed working groups that elaborated proposals for collaboration among the participating sectors. Cooperative networks emerged as appropriate structures for coordinating action and facilitating the exchange of information and support at various geographic scales. Solidarity-based markets are a venue where diverse interests converge, favoring the formation of such networks. We also identified some specific issues for collaboration, including: agrofuels and energy sovereignty, environmental services and rural education. Biodiversity and food sovereignty are the two axes of this agenda for cooperation that forms part of an international struggle to reconstruct our food systems.
