What are you eating? Where does your food come from? Who produces it—and how?
These questions invite us to look beyond the packaging and discover a living network of relationships, knowledge, and care. Across Latin America, peasant, Indigenous, Afro-descendant communities and social organizations are building a different way of producing and consuming—one rooted in agroecology. It is a model that comes from the land, protects the earth, and places life and health at the center.
In the following video, you’ll understand why they’ve chosen the Participatory Guarantee System (PGS).
At the Comparte Network, we support these transition processes through the Participatory Guarantee System (PGS)—a collective tool that recognizes, strengthens, and certifies sustainable, organized, and solidarity-based agroecological practices.
More than just a label, the PGS is a relationship of trust between producers and consumers. Learn more in the video below.
