Solidarity Brigades brings together young community leaders from Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala and Norway to address food insecurity, climate change and human rights. Through international exchange, participants share knowledge and practical approaches such as agroecological farming and Indigenous practices. They also develop and use different ways of communicating and organising, including community outreach and advocacy. Additionally, the project strengthens cooperation between organisations, builds networks across countries, and supports human rights defenders by sharing strategies to respond to threats and violence.
