What if we perceived land and Nature not as private property to exploit, but as a whole to live in, learn from, and harmoniously coexist with? What if we repaired our relationships with the land and embraced more sustainable alternatives that nurture both the planet and its communities?

Nous Sommes la Solution (We Are the Solution, NSS) is one of many women-led movements striving to do this. This is their story.

En nuestro Tributo Virtual 2015 honramos a cinco defensoras de derechos humanos asesinadas en la región de Medio Oriente y África del Norte. Estas defensoras trabajaron por los derechos de las mujeres y los derechos civiles, en su rol de abogadas y activistas. Sus muertes ponen en evidencia las condiciones de trabajo peligrosas y difíciles que, a menudo, imperan en sus países. Únete a AWID para honrar a estas mujeres, su activismo y su legado, compartiendo los memes aquí incluidos con tus colegas, amistades y redes; y tuiteando las etiquetas #WHRDTribute y #16Días.

Nous Sommes la Solution eleva y multiplica el liderazgo de las mujeres rurales que trabajan por soluciones realmente africanas para la soberanía alimentaria.

Absolutely, we want to hear about your experience with resourcing.

En Europe de l’Ouest et du Sud-Est ces défenseuses des droits humains ont voué leur vie à mener des campagnes ou des recherches. Elles ont été membres de différents mouvements pour la paix ou pour les droits des femmes et ont contribué à les faire évoluer par le biais de l'action politique, de l’activisme social ou à travers la danse. Nous les remercions infiniment pour l'héritage qu'elles nous ont laissé. Nous vous invitons à vous joindre à l’AWID pour rendre hommage à ces femmes, à leur activisme et à l’héritage qu’elles nous ont laissé. Faites ces mèmes auprès de vos collègues et amis ainsi que dans vos réseaux et en twittez en utilisant les hashtags #WHRDTribute et #16Jours.
