ResumoThis chapter examines La Vía Campesina's strategy of consolidating strategic alliances in its global struggle to build food sovereignty. After discussing some of La Vía Campesina's initial challenges in working with nongovernmental organizations we focus on two case studies: first, La Vía Campesina's work with Veterinarios Sin Fronteras, based in Spain, and second, the International Planning Committee on Food Sovereignty. In both cases we analyze some of the convergences and divergences experienced by the social actors in efforts to build strategic alliances.
