How can policy drive the future of beans and legumes in our food systems? Join leading voices from Europe, Africa, and global advocacy networks for an inspiring discussion on Legume Policy in Action.
Speakers:
In this Partner Meeting, Amanuel Samuel will share insights from Gidole, Ethiopia, where he and Netsanet Markosrecently organised a Slow Beans event. The gathering united chefs, bean enthusiasts, health professionals, and young farmers to explore the diversity of underutilized and forgotten bean species still cultivated in the region.
These beans, often overlooked in mainstream agriculture, hold significant potential for improving nutrition, enriching culinary traditions, and strengthening resilience in the face of climate and market challenges.
Join us to learn how local communities are rediscovering, celebrating, and safeguarding bean biodiversity — and what this means for the Global Bean network.
Stay Tuned for our next event!
