Agroecological Learning Journey of the Sufosec Alliance

Sufosec, the Swiss Alliance for Sustainable Food Systems and Empowered Communities, is an alliance of six Swiss NGOs working in international cooperation, with the common goal to sustainably reduce hunger and malnutrition by strengthening local food systems and communities based on agroecological methods. The alliance is financially supported by SDC, and has been developing activities jointly with SDC, such as this Agroecological Learning Journey.

As part of the 2021-2024 programme, the agroecology learning group of the Sufosec Alliance has been organizing an «agroecological learning journey». This is not a physical trip around the world, but a joint, virtually organized learning process with Sufosec partners in the Global South with the aim of exchanging knowledge and experience on agroecological transformation across countries and continents. The learning journey took place in three phases with annual online workshops and learning products between 2021 and 2024:
