Pesticide Action Network (PAN)

The Pesticide Action Network (PAN) is a global organization focused on promoting sustainable agriculture and reducing the harmful impacts of pesticides on health and the environment. Founded in the 1980s, it brings together various groups, including farmers, scientists, and advocates, to raise awareness about pesticide risks and promote alternatives. PAN works to influence policy, educate communities, and support agricultural practices that are safer and more ecologically sound. By advocating for change, PAN aims to protect people and ecosystems from the dangers associated with chemical pesticides while promoting food systems that are sustainable and fair.
