How can we feed the world—today and tomorrow?

The biggest players in the food industry—from pesticide pushers to fertilizer makers to food processors and manufacturers—spend billions of dollars every year not selling food, but selling the idea that we need their products to feed the world. But, do we really need industrial agriculture to feed the world? Can sustainably grown food deliver the quantity and quality we need—today and in the future? Our first Food MythBusters film takes on these questions in under seven minutes. So next time you hear them, you can too.

Among the thousands of hunters enlisted by the Nigerian army to track and capture Boko Haram fighters, one stands out from the crowd.

Aisha Bakari Gombi towers over her band of hunters, one of the few women who has joined the fight against one of the deadliest armed groups in Africa.

With her shotgun slung over her shoulder, she ventures into the scrub of Borno, the northeastern province of Nigeria long plagued by Boko Haram attacks, hunting down their fighters.

Her bravery and keen hunting abilities have earned her the title of 'Queen Hunter'.

Government troops are quick to call on Aisha for her skills but slow to reward her efforts financially.

While she is unable to liberate many more captives held by Boko Haram due to a lack of resources, she will never stop trying.

Dive into the multiple worlds of Aisha, a commander, a hunter and a wife.

This video explores the different perspectives of food providers on agroecology and the calls from social movements to embed agroecoogy in the struggle for food sovereignty. It focuses on the Declaration of International Forum for Agroecology, which has been advanced by social movements to claim agroecology as a bottom up practice, science and movement and the most important pathway towards a most just, sustainable and viable food and agriculture system.

Visit: http://www.foodsovereignty.org..../forum-agroecology-n to read the declaration and www.agroecologynow.com for more information on this project.

As part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, achieving a world without hunger and malnutrition calls for urgent action to make agriculture more sustainable, productive and resilient.

The impacts of climate change are further increasing uncertainties and vulnerabilities facing farmers and communities.

Integrated, cross sectoral approaches like agroecology are an important element in the transition process, reducing the environmental footprint of agriculture to guarantee healthy ecosystems that can ensure food and nutrition security for all.

On the base of case studies and interviews from farmers, researchers and decisions makers from France, Mali, Hungary , Argentina this video show how agroecology and political will can help build more resilient farming systems and question the future requirements to up-scale these solutions.

Songhaï est avant tout motivé par le bonheur ! Le désir de bonheur est l'impulsion pour un développement socio-économique durable. Il n'y a pas de bonheur dans l'insuffisance alimentaire, l'actuel exode rural africain et la fuite des cerveaux, une économie dépendante des importations, la dégradation de l'environnement, la perte d'espoir pour l'avenir chez les jeunes, l'agriculture de subsistance et la dévaluation de l'opportunité qui vient avec une croissance démographique excessive.
Le père Godfrey Nzamujo, est un prêtre dominicain, titulaire d'un doctorat en électronique, microbiologie et sciences du développement. Le père Nzamujo s'est associé à un groupe d'Africains et d'amis de l'Afrique qui partagent la vision de rendre à l'Afrique sa dignité, trop longtemps bafouée.
En 1982-1983, les médias ont fourni de nombreuses images de la famine africaine et de la grave sécheresse qui ont frappé l'Éthiopie en particulier. Ces images ont dépeint l'Afrique comme un continent ravagé par des guerres sanglantes, la famine, les crises et la pauvreté - un continent où l'espoir n'était pas permis. Le père Nzamujo, qui était alors professeur d'université aux États-Unis, a débarqué en Afrique avec la ferme conviction de changer les choses. "Au début, personne n'y croyait, ni mon ordre religieux, ni ma famille et mes amis. Mais j'étais convaincu que demain serait différent, parce que Dieu allait nous aider et que l'injustice pouvait être repoussée. ("Songhai When Africa stands up", p.28).

Quatre ans après sa création, Songhai a commencé à former de jeunes entrepreneurs agricoles. La formation de longue durée a commencé à Porto-Novo en 1989. Le Centre a étendu sa mission à tout le Bénin et à la sous-région occidentale de l'Afrique.

Songhai is motivated primarily by happiness! The desire for happiness is the impetus for sustainable socio-economic development. There is no happiness in food insufficiency, the current African rural exodus and brain drain, an import-dependent economy, environmental degradation, loss of hope for the future among young people, subsistence agriculture, and devaluation of the opportunity that comes with excessive population growth.
Father Godfrey Nzamujo, is a Dominican priest with doctorate degrees in electronics, microbiology, and development science. Father Nzamujo joined forces with a group of Africans and friends of Africa who shared the vision of giving back to Africa its dignity, which has been scorned for far too long.
During 1982-1983, the media provided abundant images of African famine and severe drought, which struck Ethiopia in particular. These images portrayed Africa as a continent ravaged by bloody wars, famine, crisis, and poverty -- a continent where hope was not permitted. Father Nzamujo, who was then a university professor in the United States, landed in Africa with the firm conviction to change things. "At first, nobody believed it, neither my religious order, nor my family and friends. But I was convinced that tomorrow would be different, because God was going to help us and that injustice could be pushed away. (“Songhai When Africa stands up”, p.28).

Four years after its creation, Songhai began to train young agricultural entrepreneurs. Long duration training began in Porto-Novo in 1989. The Centre expanded its mission throughout Benin and western sub-region of Africa.
