Join the Landworkers' Alliance on December 17th for a special online film screening of the captivating documentary 'Foragers', and help us to raise funds for our Palestinian La Via Campesina allies UAWC (Union of Agricultural Committees) who are working tirelessly to provide aid and support to farmers and rural communities in Gaza and West Bank.
About the film:
Foragers moves between documentary and fiction to depict the dramas between the Israeli Nature Protection Authority and Palestinian foragers. With a wry sense of humour, the film captures the inherited love, resilience and knowledge of these traditions, over an eminently political backdrop.
About the screening:
3pm Sunday December 17th: 'Foragers' will be available to stream online anytime from 3pm Sunday December 17th (running time: 64 mins).
7.30pm Sunday December 17th: Online presentation, discussion and Q&A session with guest speakers, including Do'a Zayed - UAWC's National Seed Bank Coordinator - who will share about the important work they are doing to defend peasant seed sovereignty in Palestine.
The film will still be available to watch until December 24th at midnight, and a recording of the presentation and Q&A session will be made available to those who registered.
About the fundraiser:
The Union of Agricultural Work Committees (UAWC) is the La Via Campesina representing over 200,000 peasant farmers and fisherfolk in Palestine. Now, in the face of the genocide war waged by Israeli occupation in Gaza and the ethnic cleansing campaign in West Bank, UAWC has launched an international relief campaign. This initiative is a clarion call to the global community and an urgent plea for solidarity to provide tens of thousands of peasant farmers and their communities with food, water, and the essentials of life. You can read more about their urgent appeal and campaign here.
