GRAIN
GRAIN is a small international non-profit organisation that works to support small farmers and social movements in their struggles for community-controlled and biodiversity-based food systems. Our support takes the form of independent research and analysis, networking at local, regional and international levels, and fostering new forms of cooperation and alliance-building. Most of the work is oriented towards, and carried out in, Africa, Asia and Latin America.

Famous quotes containing the word grain:
“Grow your tree of falsehood from a small grain of truth.
Do not follow those who lie in contempt of reality.
Let your lie be even more logical than the truth itself,
So the weary travelers may find repose.”
—Czeslaw Milosz (b. 1911)

Were native to the grain before the knife
Expressed them, and its curves were no false curves
Put on it from without.”

“For every grain of wit there is a grain of folly.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
