Review

The problem of the food crisis is not exclusive to indigenous women, but they have suggestions on rising above the crisis. One thing stands out—the rescue of Pacha Mama, Mother Earth.

The adherence to mother earth–the practice of ancient cultivation, food production customs, and natural ways of conservation and the struggles against the introduction of genetically modified products and the privatisation of water are just some suggestions by indigenous women from different Latin American peoples to overcome the food crisis.
