A SEED is a network that initiates actions and campaigns on environmental and social justice issues. A SEED was established by young people in 1991 in response to the UNCED Earth Summit proceedings in Rio and aimed to forge alliances among young people committed to social and environmental justice. Its current campaigns are centred on issues surrounding the production, distribution and consumption of food (small, local organic farms instead of agribusiness, biotechnology and supermarkets selling genetically modified food); and the coordination of the World Bank Boycott in Europe. Its main activities are promoting discussion, encouraging positive action, distributing publications and coordinating meetings.
