Join us during London Climate Action Week 2025 for a conversation on the strategic role of agrarian reform, land rights, and territory-based public policies for a just ecological transition. This transition aims to address the climate crisis without reproducing historical and social inequalities.

Hosted by Labora - Fund for Decent Work, this on-site event will highlight how popular and community-led land use — anchored in agroecology and agroforestry practices — can protect biomes, ensure food sovereignty, and generate decent livelihoods. We'll also discuss how these solutions can be strengthened through public policies, collective organizing, and philanthropic support.

At the end of the debate, Comuá Network and Alianza Socioambiental Fondos del Sur will announce the pre-launch of the Global South House, a space for debate and articulation promoted by aligned actors in the philanthropic ecosystem of the Global South, which will take place during COP30 in Belém.

When: 27 June 2025, from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM (Europe/London)

Where: United Voices of the World – Assembly Room. London, United Kingdom.

Organiser: Labora – Fund for Decent Work | Initiative of the Brazil Human Rights Fund, with the support of Ford Foundation, Laudes Foundation and Open Society Foundations

Registration: Please RSVP by Wednesday, June 25.

Junte-se a nós durante a Semana de Ação Climática de Londres 2025 para uma conversa sobre o papel estratégico da reforma agrária, dos direitos à terra e das políticas públicas territoriais para uma transição ecológica justa, que enfrente a crise climática sem reproduzir desigualdades históricas e sociais.

O evento presencial, organizado pelo Labora - Fundo de Apoio ao Trabalho Digno, destacará como o uso da terra liderado por comunidades e movimentos populares, ancorado em práticas agroecológicas e agroflorestais, pode proteger os biomas, garantir soberania alimentar e gerar meios de vida dignos. Discutiremos também como essas soluções podem ser fortalecidas por meio de políticas públicas, organização coletiva e apoio filantrópico.

Ao final do debate, a Rede Comuá e a Alianza Socioambiental Fondos del Sur anunciarão o pré-lançamento da Casa do Sul Global, um espaço de debate e articulação promovido por atores alinhados no ecossistema filantrópico do Sul Global, que acontecerá durante a COP30 em Belém.

Quando: 27 de junho de 2025, das 15h às 17h (Europa/Londres)
