8th Annual Food Sovereignty Prize

#Event
October 2016

GRASSROOTS INTERNATIONAL

Join us in honoring the Farmworker Association of Florida and the Alliance for Food Sovereignty in Africa at the 8th Annual Food Sovereignty Prize in Seattle, WA.

The Food Sovereignty Prize was first awarded in 2009 as an alternative to the World Food Prize founded by “the father of the Green Revolution,” the late Norman Borlaug. While the World Food Prize emphasizes increased production through technology, the Food Sovereignty Prize champions solutions coming from those most impacted by the injustices of the global food system. In honoring those who are taking back their food systems, the Food Sovereignty Prize affirms that nothing short of the true democratization of our food system will enable us to end hunger once and for all.

If you’re in the Seattle area, please feel free to come to the event. It will also be streamed live on Facebook.
