Indigenous Knowledge Has Been Regenerative All Along
Description:
Indigenous Peoples globally have practiced regenerative agriculture for centuries. So why is regenerative agriculture only recently coming into the spotlight? And who is receiving credit for this approach to sustainable agriculture? This panel will explore the origins of regenerative agriculture in Indigenous knowledge, and the ongoing impacts of settler-colonialism in food and agriculture systems.
