We support grassroot activism by carrying out solidarity work with our member groups, grassroot organisations and impacted communities in Europe and around the world. In 2022, our solidarity work focused on supporting civil society in Ukraine and Russia and on exposing the impact of multinational companies on peoples and nature.

In December the EU agreed on an important law to fight global deforestation and forest degradation driven by EU production and consumption. We brought campaigners from the Global South defending the rights of local communities to express their needs of the new EU anti-deforestation law.
