Transformer un monde en crise pour un avenir juste et soutenable

The report by Friends of the Earth International outlines a framework for systemic change to address the interconnected crises of climate change, biodiversity loss, and social inequality. It identifies neoliberal capitalism, patriarchy, and colonialism as the root causes of these crises and proposes 'people's solutions' centered on gender justice, democratic energy systems, food sovereignty, community forest management, and a distributive economy. The document emphasizes the need to dismantle corporate power and reclaim political agency to ensure a future based on social, environmental, and gender justice.

• The document asserts that current global crises—including climate change, biodiversity collapse, and hunger—are symptoms of a systemic disease rooted in a system that prioritizes the profits of a few over the collective interests of the majority and the health of the planet.
• Neoliberal capitalism is identified as a primary driver of environmental and social degradation, promoting the commodification and privatization of nature and the weakening of public services to benefit multinational corporations.
• The report argues that 'false solutions'—such as carbon markets, REDD+, geo-engineering, and 'nature-based solutions'—do not address structural causes and instead allow corporations to maintain their business models while continuing to exploit resources and communities.
• Gender justice is presented as essential for systemic change, requiring the dismantling of the patriarchy and the sexual division of labor, which the report claims is used by neoliberal capitalism to exploit women's unpaid care work.
• A just energy transition must move away from fossil fuels toward a 100% renewable system managed as a common good under democratic control, ensuring energy sufficiency for all rather than corporate profit.
• Food sovereignty is proposed as a political project to replace industrial agro-models with agroecology, ensuring that people have the right to define their own systems of food production, distribution, and consumption.
• Community Forest Management (CFM) is highlighted as a more effective way to protect biodiversity and prevent deforestation than traditional state-managed conservation; a cited study showed deforestation rates of 0.24% in CFM areas compared to 1.47% in absolutely protected areas.
• Economic transformation requires a shift from GDP-based growth to a distributive and regenerative economy that prioritizes public services, cooperatives, and binding international regulations to end the impunity of multinational corporations.
• The report emphasizes 'internationalist solidarity' as a necessary mechanism to support land defenders and social movements facing repression and violence from states and corporations.
