With global hunger likely to double as a result of the Covid-19 crisis, the need for food systems transformation has never been more urgent. Across five continents, Agroecology Fund partners have been on the frontlines of relief efforts, mobilizing robust grassroots networks to strengthen long-term food security and resilience. This session at the Oxford Real Farming Conference 2021, part of the Agroecology Fund initiative, addressed an Emergency Fund to support 59 such community-led responses to Covid-19. A panel of grassroots organizations will share their strategies to provide healthy, agroecological food for rural and urban food systems.
