The Monsanto Tribunal is an international civil society initiative to hold
Monsanto accountable for human rights violations, for crimes against
humanity, and for ecocide.


We, the undersigned organizations, express our full support for the
International Monsanto Tribunal in The Hague scheduled on 14-16 October
2016. We salute and support the tribunal’s steering committee and
organizing committee in this most important effort.

We view this tribunal as a culmination of the efforts of the farmers,
fisherfolks, small food producers, and peoples of the world in exposing and
opposing the devil that is Monsanto.

Monsanto, the giant US-based biotechnology corporation, has through the
decades committed grave crimes against the farmers, fisherfolks, small food
producers, and peoples of the world by producing highly-toxic products and
promoting a profit-crazed and highly-destructive agro-industrial model.

It is the face of monopoly-capitalist corporations that have been advancing
a corporate takeover of the food chain and depriving various countries of
food sovereignty. It has been denying peoples and their communities of the
power to assert and realize the fundamental right to food and to produce
food.

Monsanto has contributed to the worsening hunger, poverty, exploitation and
debt peonage among small farmers, fisherfolks, food producers. It has
contributed to attacks on the right to food of the said groups and of all
peoples of the world. It in no small measure has contributed to the
destruction of the environment and the deterioration of the health of
numerous persons.

It is in the interest of the farmers and peoples of the world that
Monsanto’s grave crimes will be consolidated and amplified through the
tribunal.

We are calling on all grassroots groups of small food producers, especially
farmer organizations and their support NGOs, to speak out on the impacts of
Monsanto in their communities and countries. Let us educate our ranks and
the public on these through various forms of forums and symposiums. Let us
hold different forms of action condemning Monsanto and its crimes.

Onward to the International Monsanto Tribunal!

*Desde la Secretaría de la PCFS, Mayeth*

*Apoyo al Tribunal Internacional** de Monsanto*

Nosotros, de Coalición de los pueblos por la Soberanía Alimentaria (PCFS),
expresamos nuestro pleno apoyo al Tribunal Monsanto Internacional de La
Haya programada de octubre de 2016. Apoyamos al comité de dirección del
tribunal y al comité de organización en este importante esfuerzo.



Monsanto, la empresa gigante de biotecnología en EstadosUnidos,  kpor
décadas a cometido delitos graves contra los agricultores, pescadores,
pequeños productores de alimentos, y los pueblos del mundo.



Es el rostro de las corporaciones monopolistas-capitalistas que han
avanzado en el control corporativo de la cadena alimentaria, privando a
varios países de su soberanía alimentaria. Se ha estado negando a los
pueblos y sus comunidades de la facultad de hacer valer y hacer realidad el
derecho fundamental a la alimentación ya la producción de alimentos.



Monsanto ha contribuido al empeoramiento del hambre, la pobreza, la
explotación y la servidumbre por deudas entre los pequeños, pescadores,
productores de alimentos. Ha contribuido a los ataques contra el derecho a
la alimentación de dichos grupos y de todos los pueblos del mundo. Que en
gran medida ha contribuido a la destrucción del medio ambiente y el
deterioro de la salud de numerosas personas.



Es de interés de los agricultores y de los pueblos del mundo que los
delitos graves de Monsanto se amplifiquen a través del tribunal.



Hacemos un llamado a todas las organizaciones de base de pequeños
productores de alimentos, especialmente las organizaciones de agricultores
y sus ONG de apoyo, de hablar sobre los impactos de Monsanto en sus
comunidades y países. Eduquemos a nuestras filas y al public sobre estos a
través de diversas formas de foros y simposios. Mantengamos diferentes
formas de acción que condena a Monsanto y sus crímenes.



!adelante al Tribunal Internacional contra la Monsanto!
