Why #Solidarity?
”Solidarity does not assume that our struggles are the same struggles, or that our pain is the same pain, or that our hope is for the same future.

Why are international seed companies interested in taking over the African seed market? The Last Seed, a new film produced by the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation, provides answers and shows how some farmers are fighting back: thelastseed.org

We join @TimaKurdi and 180 international organisations to demand an immediate end to systemic border violence & a full investigation of the shipwreck off #Pylos, which resulted in as many as 600 people being killed. Read the open letter: tinyurl.com/PylosStatement
#WorldRefugeeDay
ALT The words "End Border Violence" in bold capital letters followed by "Open letter signed by 180 international organisations and Tima Kurdi, aunt of Alan Kurdi, after the shipwreck off Pylos, Greece, demanding a full investigation and an end to systemic border violence", against a black and white photograph of foamy sea waves.

The Mediterranean is a mass grave - the highest death rate in 6 years! According to @UNmigration, at least ten people have died every day this year. The number of unreported cases rests at the bottom of the sea.

After being in touch for several days, we lost contact to all the groups in distress in the #Tunisia & #Algeria border region, possibly because their mobile phones batteries ran out. We assume many are still stuck there. Now they can't even reach out anymore to call for help.

🆘75 people in distress escaping #Libya!
They say their engine has stopped working, there is a lot of water in the boat and the weather conditions are dangerous. They fear for their lives and are urgently asking for rescue. Authorities are informed. Rescue to #Europe now!

This morning we were alerted by 29 people in distress on a boat from #Libya. They now reached #Malta #SAR zone & say "the sea started to move & there are waves". The weather is becoming very dangerous & the people need to be rescued either by #EU authorities or by nearby vessels!

Ser madre en el camino de huida hacia un lugar seguro no es a menudo una elección, sino el fruto de abusos y violencia extrema. Por eso, nada es comparable con su fortaleza y profundo coraje en el viaje que emprenden en busca de paz y dignidad.
Hoy el #DiadelaMadre es para todas ellas.
Ayúdanos a seguir. Te necesitamos.

Prime Minister of Greece, at the Evros Fence new construction.
In a place where hundreds of people died trying to reach safety, a corrupted politician takes a photo like he is advertising a product.

1/2🔴24h after being told that our ship is detained, we still do not have an official written justification for the detention. We know of dozens of boats in distress right in front of the island at this very moment, yet we are being prevented from assisting. This is unacceptable!

🔴 After the rescue of 78 people today, our crew overheard a mayday relay from an aircraft about 38 people in distress. The boat was drifting without an engine. After reaching the position, all 38 people were evacuated from the unstable metal boat. We now have 116 guests on board
