Learning from the Land and its Workers – Agroecology as Pedagogy?

Mainstream agricultural education faces the same crisis as industrial farming itself. There is an urgent need for an overhaul of agricultural learning to offer meaningful solutions to our food system chaos. How can we create the spaces for a more radical pedagogy under the existing formal systems of education and training? What can we acquire about the learning process from agroecology and its practitioners? How can agroecology revolutionise the learning process itself? What kind of networks and movements do we need to share learning and empower actors across our food systems? What lessons can we realise from the internationalisation of farming pedagogies? Join us for a fireside discussion between educationalists, farmers and activists for this open and audience-led forum. Bring your experiences, questions and thoughts. Bring your passion, visions and hopes.
