🟢🟣 New briefing shows how the EU can create a gender diverse and transformative agri-sector First: create the political will ➕ involve marginalised groups in decision-making processes to ensure their needs are taken into account @ec.europa.eu ‪@christophehansen.bsky.social‬ #SWIFTProject #CAP

🌾 Where does our food come from? Who grows it—and how? At #KinderUni, we explored these questions with students in a workshop on food systems, farming, and rural life—co-led with @oebv_via_campesina & @BNK. 👩‍🌾 Stories of work, heritage & change. #SwiftProject 📸 BStadlmayr / CVoigt

"Despite the hype, New GMOs are only a promise — not a market reality,” says ENGA’s Heike Moldenhauer. Our report with @nongmoproject.bsky.social shows they're barely present & not delivering on sustainability. 🌱 📰 Read more👇 www.foodingredientsfirst.com/news/new-gmo... #NewGMOs #NGTs #NonGMO

Women & migrants have a crucial role in farming but are often overlooked in policy & undervalued in practice. Gendered roles, legal inequality & exploitative labour conditions are symptoms of a system that relies on cheap food at a high human cost. The 🇪🇺 must tackle this! #SWIFTProject t.ly/mmXzX

Hundreds of activists marched on June 14 in Parma for the demonstration against #newGMOs / #NBTs organized by the Cambiare il Campo network. It was an important step in the ongoing struggle against the deregulation @cicrocevia.bsky.social Read more on www.gmo-free-regions.org/countries/it...

Hundreds of people, including @cicrocevia.bsky.social, took to the streets in Parma over the weekend to protest against the proposed deregulation of new #GMOs (NGTs). They oppose all attempts to remove traceability, labelling, and risk assessment for genetically modified and patented lab organisms.

The first demonstration on new GMOs in Parma on Saturday 14 June 2025. A few hundreds of people participated. Reported by @cicrocevia.bsky.social #NoGMOsInMyFood #NoGMOsInMyField www.gmo-free-regions.org/countries/it...

The @europarl.europa.eu's environment committee will vote tomorrow to start the final phase of negotiations on a controversial draft EU law on a new breed of GMOs. 🍅🌱 We've debunked 5 misleading claims used by the biotech industry and politicians who want the EU to deregulate new GMOs. 🙅👀

Acqui Terme is the largest city to date to approve the text proposed by @cicrocevia.bsky.social and the Italian Rural Association (ARI), who are concerned not just by the ecological and health risks of #NewGMOs but the development of patented products managed by a few multinational corporations.

And today we got the news that the 5th municipality voted against #newGMO! Let's keep on fighting for our seeds, with the peasants, for the planet!

EU countries bring deregulation of new GMOs one step closer—BUT fight not over yet. "Both in EU countries and in the European Parliament, major concerns about the impacts of this deregulation remain. This is not over yet." — @nina-holland.bsky.social #NewGMO www.corporateeurope.org/en/2025/03/n...

2 nouvelles tribunes opposées à la déréglementation des #OGM. Le 11 février, + de 200 organisations européennes publiaient une déclaration commune. Le 21 février, + de 70 acteurs français du secteur #bio publiaient une tribune collective dans @mediapartblogs.bsky.social. infogm.org/en-2025-touj...

GMO grapevines in Italy: Researchers mislead the public and the press. As crop trashers target the vines, scientists leading trials hide their #GMO status. @fpanie.bsky.social @cicrocevia.bsky.social gmwatch.org/en/106-news/...

At resumed #biodiversity talks Wednesday, Parties shared initial reactions to a revised draft decision on resource mobilization They indicated continued divergence of views while commending efforts made to reach consensus and requesting time to reflect overnight Read ➡️ enb.iisd.org/un-biodivers...

We're taking our government to court on #newGMO! We don't believe that NGT can escape GMO rules for field trials. However, our govt is authorizing them without public consultation, thanks to a decree which set up a fast track for NGTs. This law must be canceled www.croceviaterra.it/crocevia-ari...

We keep on fighting an gaining support on this issue. #StopNewGMO

Clear statement what is at stake for farmers, breeders and consumers, if @consilium.europa.eu would give green light for extreme deregulation of GMOs. #IchooseGMOfree

200+ organizations in EU warn against the impacts of #newGMO deregulation on farmers and small breeders 200+ organizzazioni mettono in guardia dall’impatto dei nuovi OGM su contadini e PMI sementiere 👉 t.ly/vRLn1 CC @greenpeace.eu @pollinis.bsky.social @organicseurope.bsky.social @eurovia.org

Dans une déclaration commune, plus de 200 organisations, dont Objectif Zéro OGM, s’opposent au projet de déréglementation des #OGM qui est en train d’être discuté par les pays de l’Union européenne. www.greenpeace.org/static/plane...

POLLINIS revient sur les 6 principaux mirages qui ont permis au projet de dérégulation des #NouveauxOGM (plantes issues des nouvelles techniques génomiques ou NTG #NGT) de voir le jour & d'être validé à 2 reprises par le Parlement européen. ➡️ pollinis.org/publications/n…

La liste des pays participant aux programmes d’@oxitec.bsky.social impliquant des #moustiques OGM s’allonge. L’ #Australie fait partie de cette liste. Son organisme gouvernemental pour la recherche scientifique et industrielle, le @csiro.bsky.social, est actionnaire de la filiale Oxitec Australia.

Depuis + d'un an, le Conseil de l’UE ne trouve pas d’accord sur la déréglementation des #OGM ; du fait, notamment, des problèmes que posent les #brevets sur ces #OGM. Pour la @copacogeca.bsky.social, les 2 sujets doivent être traités séparément.

En janvier 2025, la #Pologne, présidente du Conseil de l’Europe, a mis sur la table des États membres de l’Union européenne une proposition visant à « résoudre » le problème lié aux #brevets que le débat sur la déréglementation des #OGM obtenus par de nouvelles techniques a fait surgir.

Quite a clear supportive statement from @oezdemir.de, Germany's Food & Agri minister, calling on the EU to keep #newGMOs labelled 🔊👇 #IChooseGMOfree
