Unheard Voices -- In Their Own Words
Half the world's poor people live on small farms. These farmers and their families often go hungry because they cannot grow enough food to feed themselves all year round. With the right kind of support many of these farmers would be able to feed their families and improve their lives.
The Unheard Voices campaign began in late 2007, focusing on highlighting the needs of marginal farmers. The majority of these are women, so Concern shifted its attention to their specific needs. Listen to these farmers' stories, in their own words.
The Unheard Voices campaign aims to give these farmers a voice in policies that affect them. Read or watch some of their stories.
