WHY FOOD AND FUEL FORUM?

The Food & Fuel Forum was formed in early 2008 in response to the escalating crisis of rising food prices and declining food availability and from the realisation that the Economic Partnership Agreement (and other forthcoming trade agreements) signed by the government would inflict untold hardship upon the poor and the working people, including the removal of the fuel subsidy, which would drive prices across the board into the outer atmosphere.

The Food and Fuel Forum seeks to research and disseminate information about the dire consequences facing working people and the poor and to assist in developing strategies and activities to protect, advance and defend them as the international capitalist system falls into deep crisis and exposes itself as being unable to deliver a decent standard of living and the personal and social security that working people and the poor deserve.

The Forum was formed by a number of concerned individuals from different organisations within the labour and progressive movements. Some of those associated with the Forum include: Norris Deonarine, Education Officer of the National FoodCrop Farmers’ Association (NFFA); Dave Smith, Secretary National Workers’ Union; Lois Pollidore, First Vice President Transport and Industrial Workers’ Union (TIWU); Kasala Kamara, progressive intellectual educator and author; Gerry Kangalee, Member Socialist Alternative Collective, Education and Research Officer National Workers' Union, Committee Member Southern Marines Steelband Foundation; Michael Parris, Concerned Citizen.

The Forum may be contacted at 43 Fifth Street, Barataria, the office of the National Workers’ Union (NWU) or at 785 7637.
