Alejandra Guzmán Luna, CASAS’ member, has published a chapter in the book “Deserts and oases in Mexico’s agroecological transition: experiences and reflections from the northwest and the South Pacific” with Rigoberto Hernández Jonapá.

Abstract: Participatory action research harmonises with agroecological transitions that build food sovereignty by sharing ethical and political principles committed to social transformations, in this case in peasant territories. In this text we describe the first six years of a participatory process carried out in coffee-growing communities affiliated to the coffee cooperative Campesinos Ecológicos de la Sierra Madre de Chiapas, located in the Sierra Madre de Chiapas in the buffer zone of the El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve.
