Small Farmer Sustainability Brief is a low-cost, high-continuity public communication project initiated by the World Peasant Organization (WPO). The project will publish a one-page English brief every month, focusing on the relationship between small farmers, family farming, food security, rural resilience, and sustainable development standards.

The core themes are:

Water · Energy · Food · Rural Infrastructure · Farmer Income

The purpose of this project is not to build a large institution immediately, but to establish a clear, credible, and consistent voice for the World Peasant Organization through monthly policy-oriented briefs.

The project is aligned with the international context of the United Nations Decade of Family Farming 2019–2028, launched by FAO and IFAD, which provides a framework for supporting family farming through policies, programs, investments, and sustainable development actions. FAO materials also emphasize the role of family farming in food security, nutrition, livelihoods, natural resource management, environmental protection, and sustainable development.

该项目的目标不是一开始建立庞大的组织体系，而是通过持续、清晰、可信的月度简报，让 World Peasant Organization 逐步形成自己的研究声音、政策语言和国际联系网络。

FAO 和 IFAD 共同推动的 United Nations Decade of Family Farming 2019–2028 已将家庭农业、小农生计、粮食安全、自然资源管理和可持续发展作为重要议题，这为本项目提供了清晰的国际背景。FAO 的家庭农业资料也强调，家庭农业与粮食安全、营养、生计改善、自然资源可持续管理、环境保护和可持续发展密切相关。

The mission of this project is:

To build a clear, consistent, and citable public voice for small farmers and family farms within the global sustainable development agenda.

Through monthly briefs, the World Peasant Organization will connect farmer issues with the Sustainable Development Goals, food security, rural infrastructure, energy transition, water governance, and fair income mechanisms. The briefs will gradually become basic communication materials for international conferences, NGOs, universities, community organizations, and policy research institutions.

本项目的使命是：

为小农和家庭农场在全球可持续发展议程中建立清晰、稳定、可引用的公共声音。

通过月度简报，World Peasant Organization 将把农民问题与联合国可持续发展目标、粮食安全、农村基础设施、能源转型、水资源治理和公平收入机制联系起来，逐步形成面向国际会议、NGO、大学、社区组织和政策研究机构的基础传播材料。

The project has five direct objectives:

1. Build credibility
   Monthly publication shows that WPO is an active organization with continuing work, not only a name or slogan.

2. Develop professional language
   Farmer issues will be expressed through the language of sustainable development, food security, agricultural policy, and standards.

3. Create a networking entry point
   The brief will serve as an initial contact tool for North American agricultural organizations, universities, NGOs, chambers of commerce, and international conference networks.

4. Build a knowledge archive
   Each monthly issue will cover one focused topic. After 12 months, WPO will have a structured archive on small farmer sustainability.

5. Prepare future programs
   The project will support future initiatives such as the Farmer Standards Program, World Farmer Digital Map, conference participation, advisory circles, and institutional partnerships.

本项目有五个直接目标：

1. 建立可信度
   通过每月发布简报，证明 WPO 是一个持续工作的组织，而不是只有名称和口号。

2. 建立专业语言
   用国际可持续发展、粮食安全、农业政策和标准化语言来表达农民问题。

3. 建立人脉入口
   用简报作为联系北美农业组织、大学、NGO、商会和国际会议机构的“敲门砖”。

4. 建立资料库
   每期简报积累一个主题，12 个月后形成一套小农可持续发展资料库。

5. 建立未来项目基础
   为后续的 Farmer Standards Program、World Farmer Digital Map、会议发言、顾问委员会和合作项目打基础。
