Dear collegues,
Save our seeds (https://www.saveourseeds.org/) starts a mentoring / workshop programme with
the goal to have an exchange/cooperation/transfer of
knowledge between actors from different fields in the frame
of agriculture / food systems. The programme seems to be
quite broad and allows to take into consideration the bigger
picture.
Some of the mentors are
part of our group, such as Martha or Nina. Maybe they can
tell us more.
· They look for young people (16-30 years) from
the EU from different fields.
· The participation is free of charge.
· The deadline for application has been
extended to 10 April.
· Several workshops take place in April / May
· "Save Our Seeds Programme is a series of
training meetings for young activists, educators, artists,
local and national leaders of formal organizations and
informal movements, experienced campaigners, agroecological
farmers, breeders, scientists,
philosophers and seed savers."
· "The programme will be a process of a joint
journey to answer many crucial questions regarding the
future of our food systems."
o What is CRISPR-Cas9 and how powerful is it?
o What can agroecology teach us about
biodiversity and food systems?
o What are the problems of the current
agricultural systems? What definitions of the problems can
we offer?
o Do we know how ecosystems self-organize and
interconnect? Do we understand this degree of complexity?
o How do plants adapt to environmental
challenges?
o What does it mean to privatise life? Can
someone claim the right to privatise it?
o How can we mobilise to reclaim the power over
our food systems?
o deregulation of EU’s GMO legislation
o etc.
