‘Our livelihoods are tied to that land.’ – A call for Food Sovereignty

Maria Eileen Fsadni and Samuel Muscat share their thought on a food sovereignty training in Cyprus this summer.

"The issues surrounding farmers’ rights in Malta are often neglected. The increased competition from imported produce, local supply-chains designed to favour the middlemen and the rapidity of development across the island have seen the population of farmers in Malta dwindle. In June we had the opportunity to attend training organised by Young Friends of the Earth Europe in collaboration with Friends of the Earth Cyprus to learn all about food sovereignty, a concept that places the rights of peasants, farmers and land workers at its core. The training invited participants from 5 other countries namely, Cyprus, Ireland, Austria, Estonia, and Denmark."

Sweet, bell pepper, generally in the shade of green or red, is ubiquitous in Malta in the summer months. This crop is native to central and northern South America and has been brought to Europe by the Spanish.

This vegan recipe makes for a great pasta dish made with mostly local produce.
