The Nyéléni Global Forum is a grassroots-led international movement that advocates for food sovereignty—a paradigm that prioritizes people over profits and promotes equitable, ecologically sound, and culturally appropriate food systems. Initiated by La Via Campesina at the 1996 World Food Summit, the Nyéléni process has since evolved into a global platform for social movements, Indigenous peoples, peasants, workers, and activists committed to systemic transformation.
