@genevaenvironmentnetwork.orgDrawing from the #HRC63 report, UN WG on UNDROP Chair Shalmali Guttal warns against growing criminalization and restriction of peasants’ traditional use of seeds, abetted by IP laws and seed certification requirements, leading to greater privatization & commodification of seeds.
@genevaenvironmentnetwork.org#Live now!
This #HRC63 side event will explore how peasants’ seed systems relate to human rights obligations defined in the #UNDROP offering a space for dialogue towards a better protection of the #RightToSeeds.
