We (Indigenous Permaculture) hadn't heard about the Global Food Security Act, and supporting food security work is critical.

We find this is our greatest area of focus to empower communities (and, in case you're interested, please visit us at www.indigenous-permaculture.com. We welcome volunteers, and may need some for our El Salvador project) Thank you for posting this.
