<\/strong><\/p>\n

The right to food, and its variations, is a human right derived from the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR). The UN Special Rapporteur on the right to food www.srfood.org<\/span><\/a> , <\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span>www<\/span>.righttofood<\/span>.org<\/span><\/a><\/strong> <\/strong> in 2002 defined it as follows: <\/strong><\/span>HERE<\/span><\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n

THE OAKLAND INSTITUTE BREAKING NEWS<\/strong> – Investor land deals exploiting Africa, report alleges | Energy & Oil | Reuters Refugees displaced by investors. $2 per hectare land deals cited. Biofuel production at expense of food.<\/span><\/p>\n

http:\/\/af.reuters.com\/article\/energyOilNews<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

This coverage highlights how a US investor, AgriSol, has crafted a deal with the Tanzanian government that will displace 160,000 Burundian refugees who have been farming the land since 1972. The refugees have been working to gain Tanzanian citizenship, and are now being coerced into leaving the land in question if they want citizenship, according to our report.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

These large scale investments in land in Africa are resulting in food insecurity, the displacement of small farmers, conflict, environmental devastation, water loss, and the further impoverishment and political instability of African nations. Please read this investigative series of reports and post widely.<\/span> <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

The Permanent Forum for Life Dignity \/ Food Sovereignty Group, and the Grupo de Reflexi\u00f3n Rural (<\/span>www.grr.org.ar<\/span><\/a>), <\/span><\/strong>along with unions, student and teachers associations and many social organizations and political forces, convoke national and international journalists, social organizations, friends, colleagues and the general public to a Press Conference to be held on Friday June 10th, at 10:00 am at the Microcinema of the Atlantic Regional University Center of the National University of the Comahue Region of Patagonia, located in Ayacucho and Monsignor Esandi Boulevard, Viedma, Rio Negro Province, Argentina.<\/p>\n

We want to expose and make known the actions we carry out against the traitorous agreement signed by the Governor of the Province of Rio Negro, Miguel Angel Saiz with the Chinese Heilongjiang Beidahuang State Farms and Business Trade Group CO., LTD . According to published information, this \u201cagreement\u201d threatens to hand over 320.000 hectares of arable land of Patagonia to this corporation for indiscriminate exploitation, including public infrastructure, irrigation systems, huge direct and indirect subsidies and fiscal favors, violating our National Food Sovereignty with multiple social, environmental, economic and cultural consequences.<\/p>\n

http:\/\/iraqforsale.org <\/span><\/a><\/strong>The story of what happens to everyday Americans when corporations go to war.<\/p>\n

Acclaimed director Robert Greenwald (Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price, Outfoxed) takes you inside the lives of soldiers, truck drivers, widows and children who have been changed forever as a result of profiteering in the reconstruction of Iraq. Iraq for Sale uncovers the connections between private corporations making a killing in Iraq (Blackwater, Halliburton\/KBR, CACI and Titan) and the decision makers who allow them to do so.<\/p>\n

Sign our petition to end the Afghanistan War: http:\/\/rethinkafghanistan.com<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Memorial Day is coming up, and we’ve just passed a grim milestone: 1,500 U.S. troop deaths in Afghanistan. Enough is enough. The war isn’t making us safer and it’s not worth the cost, and this should be the last Memorial Day when we put military families through this kind of agony. Bring the troops home.<\/p>\n
