champions sustainable agriculture, biodiversity, food sovereignty and the rights of small farmers around the world.

In occasione di “Le stagioni di Officine - Estate” In occasione di “Le stagioni di Officine - Estate” di mercoledì 22 luglio 2026, alle ore 21:00 verrà proiettato nei giardini delle Officine Municipali di Bracciano il documentario “The Seeds of Vandana Shiva”, in versione originale con sottotitoli in italiano.

Il film ripercorre il percorso di Vandana Shiva come eco‑attivista e agroecologa, mettendo in luce la critica ai modelli di agricoltura industriale e il lavoro svolto per la difesa dei semi contadini, della biodiversità e dei diritti delle comunità rurali.

“The Seeds of Vandana Shiva” esplora il potere dell’agroecologia e il ruolo dei sistemi alimentari nella nostra vita e nel futuro del pianeta, offrendo spunti di riflessione su come ripensare il rapporto tra cibo, territori e comunità a partire dalle pratiche quotidiane.

The EU’s final vote on plants produced by New Geno The EU’s final vote on plants produced by New Genomic Techniques (NGTs) weakens core GMO safeguards and treats many new GM plants as if they were conventional ones. 

 It reduces meaningful risk assessment, traceability and labelling, narrowing farmers’ and citizens’ right to know and to choose. 

This decision is part of a wider global trend Navdanya International has documented: while biosafety rules are dismantled, patents, digital sequence information and restrictive licences expand corporate control over seeds and genomes. 

Deregulation does not free innovation: it externalises risks and costs onto farmers, communities and ecosystems, while reinforcing dependence on a handful of agribusiness corporations. 

Across regions, however, communities and movements are building powerful alliances for seed freedom, agroecology and food democracy.

This vote is not an endpoint but a reminder that we must continue to defend seeds as a commons and support the grassroots “seeds of resistance” already regenerating diverse, farmer‑managed food systems.

Con il voto finale sulle piante ottenute tramite le cosiddette Nuove Tecniche Genomiche (NGT), l’UE indebolisce tutele fondamentali sugli OGM e considera molte nuove piante GM come se fossero convenzionali. 

Si riducono valutazione del rischio, tracciabilità ed etichettatura efficaci, restringendo il diritto di contadini e cittadini a sapere e a scegliere. 

Questa scelta si inserisce in una tendenza globale: mentre le norme di biosicurezza vengono smantellate, brevetti, informazioni genetiche digitalizzate e licenze restrittive ampliano il controllo aziendale sui semi e sui genomi. 

La deregolamentazione non libera l’innovazione: sposta rischi e costi su agricoltori, comunità ed ecosistemi, rafforzando la dipendenza da poche multinazionali. 

In Europa e nel mondo comunità e movimenti stanno costruendo alleanze per la libertà dei semi, l’agroecologia e la democrazia alimentare: veri semi di resistenza.

The EU is preparing to vote on new regulations for The EU is preparing to vote on new regulations for New Genomic Techniques (NGTs), which could deregulate a new generation of genetically modified organisms. Across Europe, farmers, citizens, environmentalists, and civil society organizations are mobilizing to demand transparency, traceability, mandatory labeling, and the protection of biodiversity.
We cannot allow new GMOs to enter our fields and food systems without proper assessment and safeguards, or without guaranteeing people’s freedom of choice.
Navdanya International stands with this mobilization: together, we defend seeds, biodiversity, peasant agriculture, and food sovereignty.
