2024 Bi-National People’s Tribunal on the Struggles of Farmworkers in North America

On March 30, 2024, current and former farmworkers gathered at The People’s Forum in Midtown Manhattan to present testimony on everyday working conditions in dairies in Vermont and New York; in greenhouses in Ontario, Canada; and on farms in Massachusetts, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Washington State. Testimonies were organized into three sessions: Health & Safety, Freedom of Movement, and Climate Justice.

FCWA’s report on the tribunal identifies key issues raised in those testimonies and workers’ proposals for a just future for all.
