Translating and Feeding the Masses
This was a really good exercise, but was quite a challenge. One of my friends that works with the Pestacide Action Network, Asia Pacific (www.panap.org) asked me if I would translate the notes of a meeting between food sovereignty and farmer activists that was held in Indonesian. Take a look, if you're interested. I wouldn't trust everything I write in English... might be a few misunderstandings.
