“Changing the Field,” a major farmers’ conference in dialogue with social and ecological movements, was held in Rome from March 1-3, (program here). “It is an event that puts on the agenda the need for convergence among those who want to bring out and strengthen agroecological alternatives to the industrial food system. We envisioned it as a first stage in the construction of common initiative spaces between rural and peasant realities, solidarity economy experiences, local food networks, the world of research, social and climate justice movements”.
