We aim to create a space where participants can dive into complex subjects and discuss them together. We provide common texts, structured questions, and a framework to develop ideas of concrete utopias. For those interested, we will also explain how to get support to turn these ideas into real-life projects.
Why You Should Join:
🗣️ Real Talk: Learn about the problems with our current food system and why it needs to change.
👐 Hands-On Activities: Work in small groups to discuss important texts and come up with key questions and solutions.
🍴 Dinner Included: Enjoy a meal with fellow participants. Sign up for dinner by clicking “Going” on the event.

Our global food system is in crisis due to profit-driven industrial practices that harm the environment, biodiversity, and marginalized communities. Monoculture and chemical-intensive farming degrade soil and water, while social inequities persist. However, alternatives like food sovereignty and agroecology offer hope by promoting local solutions, policy reform, education, and collective action. These approaches prioritize local food production, support farmers, and advocate for fair market practices and debt relief.
Agroecology integrates ecological principles with social justice, promoting diverse farming systems and reducing reliance on chemical inputs. It values traditional knowledge and aims for social equity by empowering small-scale farmers. By embracing food sovereignty, agroecology, and the right to food, we can build a just and sustainable food system that benefits both people and the planet. 🌾🌍
