Principes pour une reprise juste de la crise du COVID-19

The document argues that the COVID-19 pandemic and other socio-ecological crises stem from a capitalist and neoliberal system. It proposes a recovery based on four principles: abandoning neoliberalism and austerity in favor of state-led justice and ecological limits; fostering multilateral cooperation and international solidarity, including debt cancellation for the Global South; strengthening democracy and human rights; and addressing systemic crises—including climate and biodiversity loss—through transformative change, such as transitioning to agroecology and renewable energy managed by local communities.

• The document asserts that the COVID-19 pandemic and other systemic crises (climate, food, water, economic, biodiversity, and care) share root causes in a "système capitaliste, patriarcal et raciste" designed for capital accumulation and corporate-driven neoliberal globalization.
• A just recovery requires abandoning neoliberalism and austerity. Public recovery plans should prioritize wealth redistribution, tax justice, and support for marginalized groups, while specifically avoiding the use of public funds to bail out multinational corporations in the aviation, mining, fossil fuel, and agribusiness sectors.
• International solidarity and multilateral cooperation are essential for recovery. This includes the cancellation of debt for countries in the Global South, the application of climate reparations and ecological debt principles, and ensuring that COVID-19 vaccines and treatments remain free of patents and intellectual property rights.
• To address systemic crises at their root, the document calls for a radical transformation of the food system from industrial agriculture to food sovereignty and agroecology, and a transition from fossil fuel dependency to community-led renewable energy based on the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities.
