Cuba | Cuba Agroecology Tour
Tour Sponsor: Organic Growers School
Join OGS and AltruVistas for a tour of Cuba’s Sustainable Farms. Learn from farmers and food activists about Cuba’s transition to agroecological farming practices and its national policies that prioritize organic farming and hunger remediation. Connect with farmers, consumers, activists, NGOs, policymakers, and experts working to transform the global food system. Acquire the knowledge and strategies to create just, sustainable, local, and healthy food systems in your own communities.
Our activities will include farm tours, optional farm service and work time, walking and hiking, leisurely free time, food sovereignty discussions, and lectures and panels.
We aim to enhance your understanding of the global food system and the way people around the world are working to make it more democratic and sustainable, provide an opportunity for you to view U.S. foreign policy and the corporate food regime from the perspective of Cuban farmers, and learn from Cuba’s agroecological methods. You’ll participate in and observe how the Cuban agricultural community has embraced agroecology in all of its forms and learn why Cuba is considered one of the leading global experts in agroecological methods.
