In celebration of the 60th anniversary of rural unionism in Brazil, an insightful live discussion was broadcast on YouTube. The event featured Marco Antônio Teixeira, one of the postdoctoral researchers at Heidelberg University in Germany in the Food for Justice group, and Prof. Dr. Everton Picolotto from UFSM.

They delved into the remarkable journey of the National Confederation of Agricultural Workers (Contag), shedding light on its pivotal role in Brazil’s rural unionism over the past six decades.
