Nyéléni: apuesta por la esperanza
Enviado por Veronica Villa el
Impresiones del Grupo ETC en Kandy
El proceso Nyéléni, nacido hace casi dos décadas
como una confluencia de movimientos campesinos,
indígenas, feministas y urbanos, ha vuelto a encontrarse,
esta vez en Kandy, Sri Lanka, para dar un paso más:
acordar una Agenda Política Común que articule luchas
diversas frente a las múltiples crisis del capitalismo global.
Esa agenda, lejos de ser un listado de demandas, se
constituye en un mapa político que expresa la madurez
de un movimiento internacional que no se limita a resistir,
sino que imagina y construye alternativas sistémicas.

Las tecnologías no son neutrales; reflejan y reproducen los sistemas de poder. La industria de la inteligencia artificial está emergiendo como una fuerza imperial.
Nosotros, hombres y mujeres participantes de la Primera Reunión Panafricana sobre el Futuro de las Tecnologías Biodigitales en la Alimentación y la Agricultura, celebrada en Addis Abeba, Etiopía, del 2 al 4 de octubre de 2025, y coorganizada por la Alianza para la Soberanía Alimentaria en África (AFSA), la Plataforma Africana de Evaluación de Tecnologías (AfriTAP) y el Grupo ETC, nos reunimos en un evento histórico para afrontar los retos y posibilidades que plantean las tecnologías digitales emergentes.

Optimism is back! 3rd Nyeleni Global Forum update
Enviado por Ronnie Hall el
Creating a new pathway to global systemic transformation from the ground up
As the 3rd Nyéléni Global Forum in Sri Lanka draws to a close, it’s exciting to reflect on the fact that this country - inhabited and loved by its people from coast to coast, and home to some of the world’s most biodiverse, verdant and abundant forests, rivers and wetlands - is also poised to become the birthplace of a new global meta-movement of social movements committed to bringing health and vitality back to the planet’s communities, countries and climate.

ETC Group reinvigorates its quest to track emerging technologies and scrutinise corporate concentration
Enviado por Ronnie Hall el
Following its 2025 AGM, ETC Group’s Board and Staff met for four days in Madrid, in early August, to build a new plan of action, laser-focused on challenging corporate concentration and tech ‘broligarchy’ chauvinism
We see a gathering tsunami of emerging (and converging) corporate technologies being super-charged by increasingly rapid developments in digital/AI, bioengineering and geoengineering technologies. The new corporate constellation of a few men with vast personal wealth operating within the existing hegemonic capitalist financial system is also being used to influence key governmental policy-making spaces, sidelining democratic processes and excluding civil society.

Los misiles iluminan el cielo con sus rayos de muerte. Estallan en los barrios, en escuelas, hospitales, viviendas y cultivos. No les importa asesinar porque quienes mueren no sólo no les importan a quienes envían esas bombas de precisión, sino que les estorban.

African countries unanimously reject Solar Radiation Management
African ministers made history in Nairobi today, at the 20th Ordinary Session of the African Ministerial Conference on the Environment (AMCEN), when they agreed to a text forcefully rejecting SRM and calling for a solar geoengineering Non-Use Agreement.
This is a huge win for Africa! The text was adopted without any challenge from African countries.
Top 10 des géants de l'agrobusiness : la concentration des entreprises dans l'alimentation en l'agriculture en 2025
Enviado por Ronnie Hall el
Ce rapport, co-publié avec GRAIN, met à jour le classement des entreprises qui ont atteint un contrôle sans précédent sur l’alimentation industrielle.
Dans ce rapport, nous dressons un état des lieux de la concentration des entreprises dans six secteurs essentiels à l’agriculture : semences commerciales, pesticides, engrais de synthèse, machines agricoles, produits pharmaceutiques vétérinaires et génétique animale. La concentration économique s'est renforcée dans la majorité de ces secteurs, dont quatre – semences, pesticides, machines agricoles et produits pharmaceutiques vétérinaires – répondent à la définition d’un oligopole, puisque quatre entreprises y détiennent plus de 40 % du marché.

Top 10 agribusiness giants: Corporate concentration in food & farming in 2025
Enviado por Ronnie Hall el
Our updated research, co-published with GRAIN, shows how a handful of agribusiness corporations have consolidated unprecedented control over the world's food supply, with devastating consequences for farmers, consumers and the planet.
Today, a handful of agribusiness corporations have consolidated unprecedented control over the world's food supply, with devastating consequences for farmers, consumers and the planet. This new report by ETC Group and GRAIN reveals just how extreme this corporate control has become. It examines the state of corporate concentration in six sectors critical to agriculture: commercial seeds, pesticides, synthetic fertilisers, farm machinery, animal pharmaceuticals and livestock genetics.
