A toxic climate:

The panel will examine the impacts of pesticides on climate, ecosystems and human health, focusing on regulatory double standards between the Global North and South. Bringing together perspectives from Latin America, Africa, Asia and the Mediterranean, the session will discuss the unequal distribution of pesticide-related risks, the limitations of existing international regulations and agroecological alternatives. 

It aims to strengthen calls to end the production and export of pesticides banned in their countries of origin, advocate for a binding global treaty on pesticides, and build solidarity and joint advocacy across regions.

The aim would be to identify key advocacy messages and targets that could feed into the Summit's final declaration and broader discussions on a Global Pesticides Treaty.

Emna Fourati from our Tunis office will be moderating the panel. Anne Maina from Biba Kenya, Maurício Alcântara from Instituto Regenera, and Berkan Özyer from Greenpeace Turkey will be our panelists.
