  • Climate Smart Agriculture” and Urges Decision-Makers to Support Agroecology
    Don't be fooled! Civil society says NO to “Climate Smart Agriculture” and urges decision-makers to support agroecology We, the undersigned, belong to civil society organizations including social movements, peasants/farmers organizations and faith-based organizations from around the world. We are working to tackle the impacts of climate change that are already disrupting farming and food systems and threatening the food and nutrition security of millions of individuals. As we move towards COP21 in Paris, we welcome a growing recognition of the urgent need to adapt food systems to a changing climate, and the key role of agroecology within a food and seed sovereignty framework in achieving this, while contributing to mitigation through the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. However, despite these promising signals, we share deep concerns about the growing influence and agenda of so- called “Climate-Smart Agriculture” (CSA) and the Global Alliance for Climate-Smart Agriculture (GACSA). Climate change is the biggest and the most urgent threat our societies face. We need a radical transformation of our food systems away from an industrial model and its false solutions, and toward food sovereignty, local food systems, and integral agrarian reform in order to achieve the full realization of the human right to adequate food and nutrition. We therefore urge decision-makers at country and UN levels to reject the dangerous rhetoric of Climate-Smart Agriculture. Climate Smart Agriculture must not be confused with agroecology Climate Smart Agriculture must not be confused with agroecologyi. Agroecology is a holistic approach to agriculture, based on principles of ecology as well as food and nutrition security, food sovereignty and food justice which seek to enhance agricultural systems by using and recycling natural resources instead of relying on externally-purchased inputs.

  • December 2008 a Call for Climate Justice
    December 2008 A Call for Climate Justice We, Catholic Bishops from the south and the north, address the world’s leaders as they prepare for the United Nations Climate Summits in Poznan and Copenhagen that will be decisive for the lives and livelihoods of all humanity. We are deeply concerned by the disproportionate impact human- induced climate change is having on poor and vulnerable people living in developing countries. Poor communities in developing countries are subject to the harshest effects of climate change, though they have done least to cause it. We, and the faithful in our communities, including millions of men, women and children from diverse cultures around the world, stand in profound solidarity with our global sisters and brothers. It is our moral obligation to take urgent action to tackle climate change and to do so in support of those most affected. We call on you to achieve a strong, binding and just global climate agreement to ensure the survival and wellbeing of all God’s children. As a matter of equity and responsibility, those who have created the problem must pay for the solution. Economically developed nations have a moral obligation to tackle climate change because of their disproportionate consumption of natural resources. Climate change is a reality today, affecting the lives and livelihoods of millions in developing countries by exacerbating storms, droughts and natural disasters. It is imperative that these countries receive the economic and technical assistance they need to adapt to climate change and ensure better lives and livelihoods for their people. We believe that we have a responsibility to exercise stewardship over the earth and its creatures.

  • Holy See Representative Reminds COP19 Climate Negotiators That Human Survival Is at Stake, Commissioner Hedegaard Warns of “Business As Usual”
    CIDSE press release, Warsaw, 19 November 2013 Holy See representative reminds COP19 climate negotiators that human survival is at stake, Commissioner Hedegaard warns of “business as usual” CIDSE, an international alliance of Catholic development organisations, heard dire warnings of climate change at a Warsaw conference with top-level speakers, including European Commissioner Hedegaard, Head of Holy See Delegation and Nuncio to Poland Archbishop Migliore, Scottish Minister of Environment and Climate Change Wheelhouse and Bangladeshi Bishop Gomes. The conference, co-organised with Caritas Poland and the Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski University, gathered faith-actors, civil society actors, politicians and climate scientists to work together towards climate justice on the occasion of the COP19 climate negotiations. The Holy See representative to Poland, Head of the Holy See Delegation to the COP19, Nuncio and Archbishop Celestino Migliore, opened the conference with an inspired plea. “Climate change is an ethical challenge for our civilization, asking us what changes we need to affect in our economic life, in the structures of our society and in the way we consume.” Recent polls conducted in Poland (by Public Opinion Research Center CBOS) show 89 % support for expanding renewable energy, with minority support for coal and lignite. A coal summit with backing from the Polish government in parallel to the COP19 negotiations and at the same time as the CIDSE conference, where Church representatives present spoke strongly of their concern for the poor and vulnerable in the world suffering most from climate change and called on governments to reduce radically exploitation of coal, oil and other fossil resources. Mr Andrzej Kassenberg of the Institute for Sustainable Development presented a study of the costs of “business as usual” for Poland and highlighted how the economy and to employment would benefit from shifting to renewable energy.

RAMIREZ There is no doubt that the Church has played a significant role in the work of Charity and Justice in the Relations among Nations. My paper underscores the need for a process of creating a movement of thought derived from the practice of global solidarity among diverse organizations in the Catholic Church as well as in ecumenical and interfaith groups. If the PASS has always been studying the on-going processes and ideas of the active role of Civil Society in resolving the basic social question as a result of economic globalization and commercialization, it is equally imperative for PASS to understand on a much deeper level the on-going movements nationally and internationally of Church entities and interfaith groups which since the 1950s have been striving to practice Charity and Justice in the relations among nations. A study of this nature may bring a new enlightenment of the possible organic stage of growth of programs towards global solidarity implicitly motivated and further deepened by Christian Love and Faith and/or by values of their respective religious persuasions. This paper contains also my personal testimony of the global solidarity that I have experienced in the five decades of my life first as a Young Chris- tian Worker and later as Professor and President of a Manila-based Social Science Graduate School with a difference in that it integrates the various learning components of its programs – the academic, research and social development of grassroots partner communities towards transformative praxis rooted in a Living Faith.

  • Leaders of Catholic Development Agencies Call for Urgent Climate Action and Post-Growth Economy
    8 October 2018 Leaders of Catholic development agencies call for urgent climate action and post-growth economy Responding to the release of the IPCC report, leaders of Catholic development agencies launch an urgent call, as there isn’t much time available to tackle the crisis without running into terrible consequences. We, leaders of Catholic development agencies working together in more than 120 countries to promote social justice, react to the release of the latest Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5°C from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) by sending an urgent call for climate action. The next United Nations Climate Change conference (COP 24, Katowice, Poland, December 2018) must be a milestone in the implementation of the Paris Agreement signed three years ago. Furthermore, governments, as the IPCC report also says, must imperatively and swiftly raise ambition: the reality is that we are on a warming pathway of 3.5°C or more, pointing that there is a huge gap with the 1.5°C objective. Limiting global warming to 1.5°C is a matter of survival for all and it is feasible through bold political actions: the barriers to fighting climate change are political! Now more than ever we need leaders to acknowledge and take actions to curb our current emissions trajectory. It is a moral imperative reminding us firstly of the dramatic risks for people and the planet, which are already experienced by the most vulnerable. Our current emissions have impacts such as the loss of biodiversity, the forced displacement of millions of people, the loss of yields threatening to food safety, rising sea levels, and ocean warming that threatens marine life with direct consequences of fisheries.

Op donderdagavond 22 januari is na een langdurige maar goed gedragen Clemens Hogenstijn ziekte onze collega en mederedactielid Rudolf van Dijk overleden in Gerry van der Loop kloosterverzorgingshuis Berchmanianum te Nijmegen. Bijna 45 jaar was Henk Rutten (administratie) Rudolf verbonden aan het Titus Brandsma Instituut, waar hij Administratie wetenschappelijk onderzoek verrichtte naar de Moderne Devotie. Tot enkele Administratie Collatie jaren geleden was hij ook de stuwende kracht achter Collatie. Samen met de p.a.
