Membership Support / Advice

Currently the LWA does not have capacity or resources to help individual members or potential members on their specific projects, farms or programmes. We get a lot of requests for individual support and would love to have the time to respond to each request in full. We are fundraising for a new role for somebody to focus on membership support and services as we have identified it is a gap in our offering so please watch this space. Having said that, if your query is critical and urgent please email info@staging.landworkersalliance.org.uk including the word URGENT in the subject header and it will get picked up and we can try our best to help.

Webinar: Solidarity with migrant landworkers in Europe

Earlier this year, the the Landworkers’ Alliance’s Catherine McAndrew visited farms in Huelva, Spain as part of an international delegation from the European Coordination of Via Campesina’s (ECVC) Migrant and Rural Workers’ Working Group.

This webinar will explore working and environmental conditions at the bottom of corporate supply chain. If you have eaten a strawberry that says it came from Spain, there is a good chance it came from Huelva. 350,000 tonnes of strawberries are produced there each year, worth a billion euros in total. 100,000 workers are required to grow and harvest this red gold, who face oppressive working conditions, exposure to poisonous agrichemicals, and repression from a hostile migration system. Through a presentation of photos, we will seek to reveal the reality of an industrial food system based on the exploitation of the land and the people that work it.

Wage workers are often at the sharpest edge of the exploitative practices of a corporate food system that aims to extract wealth from both the land and the people that work it. The fight of agricultural workers for human conditions on their farms directly challenges the rule of the corporates, and every success helps lays the foundation of a food system based on dignity and sovereignty.

Register for free to learn more about Catherine’s time in Huelva, the work of the ECVC Migrant and Rural Workers’ WG, and how we can mobilise for migrant workers’ rights here in the UK.
