<p>D &#038; P has already sent over 5,000.000.00 to our partners working to help the poorest of the poor in the Horn of Africa.  </p>
<p>Over the next five years our focus will be helping to save land for small scale farmers, particularly in the Global South. </p>
<p>Large multi nationals are coming in, taking over large tracts of land for mono culture and not respecting the environment.  </p>
<p>Our theme is “Together we hold the future in our hands.”  </p>
<p>Become involved with the issue of Ecological Justice.  </p>
<p>Be part of the solution and help cool our earth.</p>

DEVELOPMENT &#038; PEACE<br />
WHY FOOD SOVEREIGNTY?</p>
<p><em>In a world that produces enough food for every man, woman and child to eat a daily balanced diet, about 860 million people do not have enough food to lead healthy and productive lives. Another 100 million may soon join them.</em></p>
<p>These stark numbers are the result of a global food system which for more than 30 years has rewarded farmers in the Global South for growing food for export at the expense of supplying local food markets. </p>
<p>While global agricultural yields have increased, hunger in the Global South has not decreased. Hunger is caused by poverty, not scarcity. </p>
<p>The goals of food sovereignty include providing for local needs in an ecologically sound way that respects local biodiversity, national differences in food production and support for small-scale farmers.</p>
