The Cooperative "Producers' Union Maya Vinic" is comprised of some 700
coffee farming families located in 36 highland communities in Chiapas,
Mexico. Inspired by the traditions of their ancestors, Maya Vinic is
organized and operates in keeping with a respect of local culture,
language, reverence for the Mother Earth and traditional forms of
self-government.
Maya Vinic was born out the wider civil society "Las Abejas", an
organized response to the prevalent injustice in their communities and
in the hopes of promoting positive change and autonomous development by
pacific means. The plight of their communities came to the public eye
in the aftermath of the infamous Acteal Massacre, where 45 men, women
and children were killed by paramilitary forces and thousands more
displaced from their homes.
