On the day before Human Rights Day, the Berne Declaration is using advertisements and an event to draw attention to the many victims of Syngenta’s highly-toxic best-seller.

“Fifty Years of Paraquat – Fifty Years of Human Rights Violations: We mourn the countless pesticide victims and urge Syngenta to immediately halt the poisoning of farmers and plantation workers!” Under a large banner bearing this appeal at the Schifflände, Basel residents can declare their solidarity today with the victims of the agrochemical corporation based on the other side of the Rhine.
