On July 7, from 13.00-14.30 CEST, Sprouts Collective presented a special webinar. Drawing from decades of collaboration with farmers in local and indigenous communities, the event shared technical, policy, and institutional reflections on the conservation and sustainable use of PGRFA. The speakers that presented have pioneered concepts and tools that were adapted and scaled into global programs. They’ve been aiming to go beyond projects to catalyze lasting change towards a shared future. The session shared their progress, hard-earned lessons, while speakers confronted ongoing challenges, and offered recommendations to strengthen farmers’ and indigenous peoples’ seed systems.
