Schola Campesina is a training and participatory research centre seeking to strengthen producers’ organizations in their struggle for food sovereignty through knowledge valorization and sharing. Based on the Nyéléni International Forum for Agroecology (2015), and on the principles of Dialogo de saberes, Schola Campesina seeks to boost the sharing of peasant, academic and activist knowledge. Through trainings and events, Schola Campesina provides specific information related to the global governance of food and agriculture to producers’ organizations, strengthening their position within the Rome process.

Schola Campesina seeks to strengthen the network of agroecology schools and training initiatives around the world from a South-South Cooperation perspective. It seeks to gather good practices that can be replicated, and valuable knowledge to disseminate among small-scale farmers around the world.
