Meet Aurelia from Guatemala. An inspirational farmer and community leader. Aurelia and her family belong to the Indigenous Q’eqchi’ community of the Alta Verapaz region.
The climate crisis and industrial plantations have changed Q’eqchi’ land dramatically. Gruelling heatwaves, savage storms and unpredictable seasons are ravaging farms. Industrial agriculture is taking over the last of the region’s natural resources to feed the world’s richest countries.
Many of the vital crops that Aurelia depends on are withering and dying before her eyes.
Please donate today. Please help fund vital tools and training, so farmers like Aurelia can support their community to escape hunger. Thank you!
While we are talking Christian Aid - Have a look at this new report which shows how climate change threatens the world’s favourite fruit - Bananas.
