We Are the Solution: African Women Organize for Land and Seed Sovereignty
"Traditional, small-holder peasant agriculture is done by women. Women are the ones who save the seeds – the soul of the peasant population. This is to honor what women have inherited from their ancestors: the conservation of seeds as part of their knowledge to care for the whole family and nourish their communities." - Mariama Sonko, farmer and organizer in Senegal.
