Farmer-Centered Sustainable Development Standards
以农民为中心制定可持续发展标准。
Farmer Voice & Standards Program is a core initiative of the World Peasant Organization (WPO) focusing on sustainable development, agricultural standards, food security, and rural resilience.
The central idea is:
Farmer-Centered Sustainable Development Standards
Instead of starting with large-scale field projects, the program begins with standard frameworks, indicator systems, policy briefs, public advocacy, and expert review mechanisms. Its purpose is to build a clear and credible language through which small farmers, family farms, and rural communities can be heard by international conferences, NGOs, universities, policy institutions, and standards-related organizations.
The 2026 UN High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development will be held in New York from July 7–15, 2026, with in-depth reviews of SDG 6, SDG 7, SDG 9, SDG 11, and SDG 17. These goals are directly connected with water, energy, infrastructure, sustainable cities, and global partnerships, creating a natural entry point for WPO’s farmer-centered standards work.
该项目不以立即开展大型实地农业工程为起点,而是先通过标准框架、指标体系、政策简报、公开倡议和专家审阅机制,为小农、家庭农场和基层农业社区建立可被国际会议、NGO、大学、政策机构和标准化组织理解的表达方式。
2026 年联合国可持续发展高级别政治论坛 HLPF 将于 2026 年 7 月 7–15 日在纽约召开,并重点审议 SDG 6、SDG 7、SDG 9、SDG 11 和 SDG 17,即水资源、能源、基础设施与创新、可持续城市和全球伙伴关系;这正好为 WPO 从“农民声音 + 可持续发展标准”的角度切入提供了机会。
The mission of this program is:
To move farmers from being “subjects affected by policy” to “participants in standards, governance, and sustainable development.”
Many sustainability policies, agricultural projects, supply-chain standards, and ESG reports affect farmers, but farmers’ own voices are often underrepresented. This program uses five core indicators to bring farmer income, water use, energy cost, supply-chain fairness, and farmer participation into sustainable development standards discussions.
FAO’s work on small family farmers emphasizes productivity, assets, market access, poverty, food security, migration, and income risks under climate change. This supports the idea that farmer issues should not be understood only through production output, but through the broader structure of rural transformation and sustainable development.
本项目的使命是:
把农民从“被政策影响的对象”,转变为“参与标准制定和可持续发展治理的主体”。
很多可持续发展政策、农业项目、供应链标准和 ESG 报告都涉及农民,但农民本人的声音往往不足。本项目希望通过五个核心指标,把农民收入、水资源、能源成本、供应链公平和政策参与纳入可持续发展标准讨论。
FAO 关于小型家庭农场的资料强调,小农经济生活涉及生产率、资产、市场准入、贫困、粮食安全、迁移和气候变化下的收入风险等多个方面,因此农民问题不能只从农业产量角度理解,而应放入农村转型和可持续发展的整体结构中。
In the first year, the program should produce six types of outputs:
A standards framework
WPO Farmer-Centered Sustainable Development Standards 1.0
Five thematic briefs
Covering income, water, energy, supply chains, and farmer participation.
A 2026 HLPF policy brief
Connecting farmer issues with SDG 6, 7, 9, 11, and 17.

Publishing the framework, indicators, briefs, and partnership invitation.
An annual report

The World Peasant Organization is launching the Farmer Voice & Standards Program, a farmer-centered initiative to develop sustainable development standards that reflect the realities of small farmers and family farms.
The program focuses on five indicators: farmer income, sustainable water use, rural energy cost, fair agricultural supply chains, and farmer participation in policy and standards.
We are seeking early sponsors and partners to support the first standards framework, five thematic briefs, a 2026 HLPF policy brief, and an annual review report.
