Key Elements in Regulatory Frameworks to Ban Highly Hazardous Pesticides, Phase Out Other Pesticides, and Facilitate the Transition to Agroecology
Elements Paper
The aim of this paper is to provide an initial set of elements for regulatory processes to those groups or individuals advocating for the transformation of food systems in general, or specifically against agro-toxics and for pesticide-free food systems.
This paper has also drawn inspiration from the study Transitioning Towards Pesticide-free Food Systems: People’s Struggles and Imagination,
as well as the report Pesticides in Latin America: Violations Against the Right to Adequate Food and Nutrition.
