Issues Areas of Focus

The Field Alliance believes that each woman, man and child has the right to knowledge and the freedom and responsibility to act in ways which ensure the health and sustainability of humans and environmental systems.

The issues that The Field Alliance focus on are multifaceted and multilateral, and each area of focus has been identified by the communities themselves and as such, continue to evolve dependent on time, location, environmental conditions, and economic and social needs.
