📢📨 Three letters. One message. We wrote to the @ec.europa.eu, @jessikaroswall.ec.europa.eu, @europarl.europa.eu & @eu2025dk.bsky.social asking them to stop exporting #pesticides banned in the EU. www.pan-europe.info/resources/le...

‘Return to Sender’ is a new campaign launched today by the European coalition ‘End Toxic Pesticide Trade Coalition’ to hold the @ec.europa.eu accountable for letting the exports of banned, toxic #pesticides from the EU to the global South explode. www.pan-europe.info/press-releas...

Market-based and profit-driven “ #climate solutions” all too often result in grave violations of the rights of indigenous peoples to free, prior and informed consent, and to self-determination. Read PANAP's latest publication on the topic: panap.net/2025/09/clim... #NoLandNoLife

#Agroecology is an economically viable and socially just approach to sustainable agriculture and food systems, grounded in ecological and social justice principles. The AE WG shared the principles of AE to stakeholders, supporting them to adopt policies driving food systems' transformation 🤝

Stop toxic trade. Pesticides banned in Europa should not be exported to other countries. Toxic here = toxic there. Today 600+ organisations from all over the globe call on the EU to stop this violation of human rights.

The EU bans toxic pesticides to protect its own citizens But still exports them to other countries 📢 600+ organisations demand an end to this toxic injustice and protect people and the planet everywhere! pan-international.org/wp-content/u...

#HHPs are of concern due to their adverse effects on human health and the environment. A large number of HHPs continue to be used and their regulation is very uneven. PAN, through the HHPs WG, aims to increase awareness and promote HHPs phase-out at the international, regional, and national levels.

🌿Who we are🌿 PAN Asia Pacific (PANAP) is one of five regional centres of Pesticide Action Network, a global network dedicated to the elimination of harm upon humans and the environment by pesticide use, and to the promotion of biodiversity-based ecological agriculture.

In this article, Javier Souza @RAPAL, explores the garden as an agroecosystem. This helps understand the causes & consequences of climate change and determine how to implement comprehensive and systemic solutions, in relation with each territory and community. 👉 diariohuellas.com.ar/2025/02/18/a...

PAN International’s vision is a world in which harmful pesticides and toxic agrochemicals are eliminated, and replaced by innovation and promotion of ecological alternatives, especially agroecology, with biological, agricultural and cultural diversity as the basis for truly sustainable agriculture 🧑‍🌾

With the understanding of the adverse effects of #HHPs comes the need to replace agrochemicals with #agroecology. With the final meetings of the CBD COP 16 approaching, PAN highlights the synergies between commitments on agriculture, pesticides, and food systems across key UN frameworks.

Over this year, PAN’s involvement in UN policy processes will seek to ensure that: 🐝 The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). 🐝 Key pesticides are listed under the Stockholm and Rotterdam Conventions. 🐝 The Global Framework on Chemicals (GFC) . 🐝 Parties to the UNFCCC.

PAN is a global network of grassroots organisations founded in 1982 to bring the voices of populations who suffer the worst consequences of chemical-intensive systems to key international fora, and also offer viable, vibrant, and just solutions based on agroecology💡 Read more: pan-international.org
