Description/notes
CUC works for comprehensive rural development and promote gender equity and ethnic, cultural and linguistic diversity, as expressed in the Peace Agreements.
We fight to uproot injustice and the oppressive and exclusionary system, through organization, political training and grassroots mobilization, generating political and technical proposals, and developing work in political and public decision-making spaces.
We coordinate and promote solidarity with peasant, popular and other civil society organizations, national and international, in the search for alliances to achieve measures for the benefit of the poor population of Guatemala.
