“…Many governments stressed we are all in this together and that we could only get out of the pandemic by staying together and being solidaristic (e.g., the Dutch government began a national campaign entitled “Only together will we get the coronavirus under control” (“Alleen samen krijgen we corona onder controle”), and the USA had the #AloneTogether campaign). This call for solidarity resonated with the public, and initiatives were developed to support vulnerable population groups, such as the elderly (including those highlighted by the municipality of Amsterdam [ 73 ]; see also [ 74 , 75 , 76 ]), and express appreciation of the critical contributions of essential workers [ 77 , 78 ]. However, as the pandemic continues, solidarity and social justice could be increasingly under pressure [ 77 , 79 ].…”

The enormous public health burdens of the COVID-19 pandemic are not distributed equally. Inequalities are noticeable along socio-economic and socio-cultural fault lines. These social determinants of health affect both the prevalence and severity of COVID-19 infections as well as the magnitude of negative impacts of the measures taken to slow the spread of the virus. This perspective paper summarizes key inequalities in who is affected by SARS-CoV-2 infection and in who is affected by COVID-19 prevention measures, based on evidence presented in state-of-the-art literature, and discusses the scope of challenges that these inequalities pose to solidarity and social justice. Key challenges for solidarity are highlighted across three areas: challenges to intergenerational solidarity, to global solidarity, and to intergroup solidarity.

“…As COVID-19 made in-person interviews and travelling difficult, the authors relied on their previous work and expertise (e.g. Córdoba et al, 2021;Ometto et al, 2021;Peredo, 2019;Weber & Cabras, 2021) combined with those provided by activist researchers in the region. 3 The authors performed document and archive research searching for "Covid + Indigenous" (Covid + indígena) in multiple databases focused on Indigenous issues provided by international, national, and regional agencies (see Table 1).…”

This paper analyses direct management of COVID-19 in Brazil, Colombia and Peru, the three largest countries in the Western Amazon region. Using information gathered from different sources and analysing them through comparative case studies and content analysis, this study reveals the scale of disruption endured by Indigenous communities living in the region caused by COVID-19. While findings identify several shortcomings and failures in policies adopted by national and local governments in dealing with the pandemic, they also highlight how some Latin American countries used the crisis to introduce reforms to deepen neoliberal New Public Management (NPM) policies and practices.

“…C'est pourquoi, sur les nouveaux marchés, le quinoa andin agroécologique ne se distingue pas du quinoa cultivé en conventionnel. Du point de vue économique et social, la consolidation des organisations de producteurs est essentielle pour faire valoir des solidarités, au sein des associations ou des coopératives issues des différents territoires andins, partageant les mêmes objectifs, afin d'éviter que ceux-ci ne s'affrontent sur le marché mondial où de nouveaux pays concurrencent déjà la production de quinoa andin (Córdoba et al, 2021).…”

Le Quinoa au temps de la Covid-19 : vers de nouvelles coordinations entre les producteurs des différents pays andins

Le quinoa est cultivé depuis des millénaires dans les Andes depuis sa domestication sur les bords du lac Titicaca, entre le Pérou et la Bolivie. Culture rustique des hauts plateaux andins, il a conquis le marché international depuis une trentaine d’années. Aujourd’hui, le Pérou est le premier producteur mondial et la majorité de sa production est exportée. Produit localement par des petits paysans et consommé à l’échelle globale, le quinoa reflète bien le contexte de la mondialisation de l’agriculture et de l’alimentation. La crise de la Covid-19 a aussi touché le Pérou et interroge les acteurs sur la robustesse et la résilience des filières d’exportations. Cet article d’opinion repose sur des débats organisés en mai–juin 2020 au Pérou. Après avoir rappelé le contexte général de la culture du quinoa et du lien entre la Covid-19, l’agriculture et la biodiversité, nous soulignons les liens entre crise sanitaire, crise agricole et crise alimentaire. Cette pandémie mondiale offre l’opportunité de questionner les modèles agricoles actuels afin d’en tirer des leçons pour le futur. La projection de nouvelles solidarités autour d’une marque collective est porteuse d’un projet territorial transnational à l’échelle des Andes. Accompagner les acteurs pour en faire un modèle de développement inclusif requiert des outils participatifs adaptés.
