Community Alliance for Global Justice

The Community Alliance for Global Justice (CAGJ) is a non-profit organization based in Seattle, Washington. CAGJ works to strengthen the global food sovereignty movement through community education and mobilization.

CAGJ's mission is to build a just and sustainable food system that works for everyone, not just big corporations. They believe that food sovereignty is the right of people to control their own food and agricultural systems. This means having the right to produce, distribute, and consume food in ways that are healthy, sustainable, and culturally appropriate.

CAGJ works on a variety of issues related to food sovereignty, including:

• Promoting local and sustainable agriculture
• Fighting against corporate control of the food system
• Advocating for food justice for all people, regardless of race, class, gender, or ability
• Educating the public about the importance of food sovereignty

CAGJ is a member of the US Food Sovereignty Alliance (USFSA), a national coalition of organizations working to achieve food sovereignty in the United States. CAGJ is also a founding member of the International Forum on Food Sovereignty (IFFS), a global network of organizations working to achieve food sovereignty around the world.

CAGJ's work is essential to building a more just and sustainable food system. By strengthening the global food sovereignty movement, CAGJ is helping to ensure that everyone has access to healthy, affordable, and culturally appropriate food.

Here are some of the ways that CAGJ works to achieve its mission:

• Conducting research and publishing reports on food sovereignty issues
• Organizing educational events and workshops
• Advocating for policy changes that support food sovereignty
• Building alliances with other organizations working on food justice issues
