We are the coalition for food systems transformation through agroecology.

16/10/2026

Over the past decades, global crises and climate change have exposed a major vulnerability in our food systems: an over-reliance on fragile, globalized supply chains.
The good news is that agroecology provides many solutions at once! By combining modern science with traditional knowledge, it:
🌱 Restores soil health and protects agrobiodiversity.
👩‍🌾 Puts power back in farmers' hands by reducing their dependence on costly imported fertilizers and chemical inputs.
💪 Builds stronger local food systems, helping communities cope with economic and climate shocks.

Today is World Food Day—a great opportunity to reflect on how we grow, share, and consume our food. 🌱

Agroecology offers a pathway to more sustainable systems that benefit both people and the planet.

🌱 From threat to protector: our food can be part of the solution!

Ahead of the United Nations Biodiversity Conference in Armenia, voices from Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa send a clear message: food systems can help protect biodiversity when they work with nature, not against it. Agroecology is a key pathway to making this happen.
🎥 Hear their calls for stronger policies, greater investment in agroecology and recognition of farmers and local communities as key actors in biodiversity protection.

🌍 How can we turn global biodiversity commitments into action?
Join Biovision Foundation, the Agroecology Coalition and its members at C*D COP17 as we explore how agroecology can help countries deliver on their biodiversity goals.

Next week, the global community gathers in Yerevan for C*D COP17 to address one of the most critical challenges of our time: halting and reversing biodiversity loss.
🌱 How can agroecology contribute to this goal?
1. Fostering connections between plants, animals, people and the environment to support biodiversity at multiple levels.
2. Co-creating knowledge with local communities to develop solutions tailored to specific contexts.
3. Strengthening resilience through practices such as agroforestry and polycultures.

The evidence is clear, but turning global commitments into meaningful local action requires aligned policies and strong cross-sector collaboration. So, join us at the events we and our members are organizing! Explore our guide to discover how agroecology can help translate biodiversity commitments into action:

🍌 Can we significantly reduce pesticide use in banana production without compromising yield or fruit quality?

Through a two-year pilot under commercial production conditions, Cirad - La recherche agronomique pour le développement tested an alternative to systematic fungicide applications, using field and biological monitoring, risk assessment, technical support, and continuous measurement to guide plant health management.

📊 The results are encouraging:
✅ 58–63% reduction in the Treatment Frequency Index (IFT)
✅ 75% reduction in the quantity of active ingredients used
✅ Mancozeb eliminated from the treatment programme
✅ No active ingredients prohibited in the European Union used
✅ No negative impact on yield or fruit quality recorded

🌱 Can agroecology help farming communities become more resilient to cyclones?

The BRACE study found that households participating in an agroecological farming programme in coastal Bangladesh were more resilient before, during and after Cyclone Remal.

📢 Join CAFOD for the launch of our new report, Building Resilience through Agroecology for Coastal Emergencies, to discover the findings and their implications for future policies.

💫 New case study is out!

Funded by the Kingdom of Belgium, the Sahel Climate Thematic Portfolio (PTCS) in Burkina Faso leverages agroecology and community mobilization to restore degraded land, increase agricultural production, and improve the climate and economic resilience of rural communities.

This interventon has achieved remarkable outcomes:
🌱 Over 10,000 hectares of degraded land restored
🌾 More than 4,000 hectares managed using agroecological practices
📊 A 33.4% increase in agricultural yields
👩‍🌾 Access to restored land for 40% of women

To bridge the disconnect between production and consumption in Colombia, Red CSA Network is reshaping food systems through agroecology 🌱.

Through CSA models:
✅️ Families commit financially in advance, freeing growers from standardized market pressures to focus on soil health, native seeds, and crop diversification.
✅️ Consumers rely on seasonal food boxes — bringing back biodiversity, local traditions, and culturally significant foods missing from conventional supermarkets.

Nearly 1.4 billion people work across food systems, yet face more exploitation than workers in any other sector. This exploitation is rooted in systems built around keeping labour cheap and workers disempowered – with migrant workers, women, racialised groups, and other marginalised workers facing the greatest risks.

However, IPES-Food's latest report shows that change is possible. Food workers have repeatedly organised to win better pay, safer workplaces, and stronger rights. When workers have power, conditions improve.
