What We Do

Grassroots is an international development and human rights organization that works with social movements and progressive organizations to build a global movement for social justice.

Through grant-making, education and advocacy, we support the initiatives of peasants and family farmers, women and indigenous groups to protect human rights to land, water and food.

Currently, we support community-led initiatives and movement building in Brazil, Haiti, Mesoamerica and the Middle East, as well as worldwide movements such as the Via Campesina.

We also work with activists, allies and donors in the United States to support the movement and to advocate for U.S. policies that will build a more just world for all.
