Israel's military court system upholds its illegal occupation. Military courts enforce repressive laws on the Palestinian civilian population to suppress dissent, quash resistance to occupation, and deepen Israel’s military rule. Read our report: waronwant.org/resources/judg…
The world has recently been shaken by a global wave of farmers’ protests, with massive demonstrations taking place across the world, from Europe to Asia and Latin America: waronwant.org/news-analysis/…
Why the global farmers’ protests matter 🚜 The recent farmers' protests have resulted from decades of governmental pressure to produce food more cheaply, at the expense of livelihoods. More info on our latest News & Analysis piece ⬇️ 🧵

6. In Bangladesh, farmers are fighting for alternative, climate-adaptive forms of food production and are using climate-friendly forms of pest control: waronwant.org/profiting-hung…

1. For the benefit of people and planet, our food systems must value wellbeing and biodiversity – and respect people's rights to define their agricultural and food policies. 📺Find out more this #EarthDay2024 👇🧵🌍
This #EarthDay2024, let's reaffirm our commitment to our planet. Join us in recognising those who defend life in our struggle against extraction, occupation and climate violence. Our partners' daily demand for ecological justice reminds us that this is our shared home.
Smallholder farmers are standing up against the unfair industrial food system dominated by a few mega corporations. From farmer protests in Argentina about rigged pricing, to protests in Brussels against 'free' trade deals, their voice grows stronger: waronwant.org/news-analysis/…
In January 2024, @nextofficial announced record-high profits of £918million. Next, in order to keep purchase prices low, pushes minimum wages lower. With massive inflation, minimum wages are so low that workers can’t afford the food they and their families need.
Right now, 44,000 Bangladeshi garment workers are facing arrest after protesting for a fair minimum wage. We’re on Oxford Street to demand: 🪧An end to the crackdown on workers' rights in Bangladesh 💰A pay rise for the people who make our clothes 🧵👇

From climate breakdown to soaring inequality, we are living in an age of crisis. ✊ The only answer is justice. Be a part of it. *Introducing...*.
When brands are silent, factory owners step in to drive the negotiations down. Brands must end their silent complicity, pay higher prices for their products and back the trade unions' demand to raise the wage to at least #23000Tk. Full PR: buff.ly/4930flD
Your workers deserve a liveable wage! Will you speak out now and back the #23000tk demand? @Primark @nextofficial @UNIQLO_UK @ASOS_news @newlook @hm @Zalando @espritofficial
