The Nyeleni Global Forum

For the past two decades, the Nyeleni Process has convened social movements and allies to advance food sovereignty and climate justice worldwide. Started at the 2007 International Forum on Food Sovereignty in Mali, the Nyeleni Process has articulated strategies to expand the organizing capacity of peasants, women, and Indigenous people to advocate for global policies to protect local communities’ rights to land, water, seeds, and food.
