Small-scale farmers are guardians of the future, teasing life from the seeds they sow, building community, and stewarding the land and biodiversity. Given Solidaridad’s long history of deep work with small-scale farmers around the world, we are well-placed to deliver on our ambition in collaboration with all supply chain actors.

THE PILLARS

Our work is built on economic, social and environmental pillars. We work within supply chains to enable farmers and workers to achieve a living income, shape their own future, and produce in balance with nature

These pillars are deeply interconnected – each reinforcing the other. From the earliest stages of programme development, we consider and incorporate aspects of each pillar to tailor our approach to best meet the needs of farmers and their communities.

ECONOMIC RESILIENCE & PROSPERITY

Small-scale farming provides for livelihoods with a sustainable and viable outlook for the future.

ECONOMIC RESILIENCE & PROSPERITY

We believe any person should be able to achieve a living income and lead a dignified life through their work. However, the true measure of resilience is a farmer’s ability to withstand market volatility, climate risk and other disruptions. Economic resilience represents our work to improve financial stability for small-scale farmers.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP

Farmers are stewards of the land whose contributions to the maintenance and recovery of ecosystems must be recognized, financed, and rewarded.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP

We recognize the crucial role farmers play in environmental stewardship. They must be able to operate in a way that supports a sustainable local environment, in line with planetary boundaries. Their contributions to the maintenance and revitalisation of eco- systems must be recognized, financed, and rewarded. Sustainable agriculture requires fertile soil, clean water and air, and flourishing biodiversity. Supporting farmers as they work to achieve this is everyone’s responsibility.

SOCIAL EQUITY

All community members enjoy equal opportunities to participate and benefit from supply chains, engender positive change, and choose their own path.

SOCIAL EQUITY

The concepts of inclusivity and social equity center on ensuring equitable access to, and benefits from, opportunities and resources. This happens when farmers and workers, in all their diversity, are able to realize their potential, individually and collectively. The voices of small-scale farmers need to be heard, respected and integral to decision-making processes. We recognize the importance of reducing the barriers faced by those who are typically excluded or marginalized, especially women and young people.
