Test Map

For 50 years, Velt, the association for ecological living, cooking and gardening, has been standing up for "good food and farming". During our party we will let you taste good food at various information stands, workshops, and in our cafe... an extensive market introduces you to correct, traditional products. Velt's seed collective will also be present and will help you find real, resistant varieties for your own vegetable garden.

How effective is agroecology as a solution for increasingly extreme climate change? And what role does water play in the restorative agricultural system of the future?
During a multi-day event from October 14 to October 19, 2024, we will enter into a dialogue with everyone who wants to delve deeper into these themes. From conscious vegetable gardeners to concerned policymakers to proactive farmers.

Hoe effectief is agro-ecologie als oplossing voor steeds extremere klimaatveranderingen? En welke rol speelt water in het herstellende landbouwsysteem van de toekomst?
Tijdens een meerdaags evenement van 14 oktober tot en met 19 oktober 2024 gaan we in dialoog met iedereen die zich wilt verdiepen in deze thema’s. Van bewuste moestuinier over bezorgde beleidsmaker tot pro-actieve landbouwer.

Overvloedige regenval, moeilijk bewerkbare landbouwgrond wegens de nat en overstromingen, maar tevens ook in andere periodes te lage grondwatertafels zijn in in Vlaanderen, zijn de laatste jaren al te frequent brandend actueel in Vlaanderen. Wat is het groter kader van deze problematiek in Vlaanderen? In welke mate kan landbouw mee de oplossing zijn binnen de waterproblematiek in Vlaanderen? Wat kan je doen als burger in jouw eigen tuin?

Wervel, Pomona Puur Natuur en Solidagro organiseren op zaterdag 19/10 een dag waar deze thema's aan bod komen. In de voormiddag gaan we in gesprek met Mark Shepard, áán van dá pioniers in herstellende landbouw, over zijn aanpak.



Over de middag is er een mogelijkheid om uit te wisselen tijdens een lunch met lokale landbouwproducten en stellen we het project:Smaakvol Samen:verbindend lokaal ondernemerschap voor. In de namiddag kan je kiezen uit 2 workshops: een workshop rond Watervriendelijke tuin: ontharden en beplanten gegeven door VELT-lesgever Jan Van Bogaert, een boerderijbezoek aan Pomona Puur Natuur (Melsele) begeleid door Mark Shepard met als thema waterbeheer in agro-ecologische landbouw."

About the Summit

Climate Change Summit is the largest event in Central and Eastern Europe dedicated to innovative solutions for the climate change challenges we are facing today and tomorrow. The Summit takes place amid geopolitical and geoeconomics shifts at an inflection point of how societies look at desired futures.

The 3rd edition of the Summit takes place on October 15-17, 2024, in Bucharest, bringing together hundreds of participants and speakers in conversations about climate change solutions, green economy opportunities and climate action. Over the three days of the event, dozens of climate innovation and environmental policy leaders, researchers, entrepreneurs and government officials will get together in a joint effort to find local and regional solutions for a sustainable future.

Slow Food Prague will organize a Snack Workshop event for children.
Kids will be working with our members to create their own snacks. We will prepare 3 types of home-made spreads for the children, and they will choose a spread for a slide of grain bread and add seasonal vegetables, which they will also have a choice of.
The event will be supplemented with information leaflets - recipes for spreads and information about seasonal agricultural crops, which will motivate children to create their own fresh school snacks. The entire event will take place at a football stadium on the outskirts of Prague during a children's kite-flying celebration.

La Ceinture Aliment-terre liégeoise vous invite à une journée d’échanges autour de la transition alimentaire en amont de l’exposition « Cultures en transition« , portée par Le Centre d’Action Laïque de la Province de Liège, Arsenic2 et la compagnie Adoc, dans le cadre du projet « Nourrir la Wallonie » dont le Festival Nourrir Liège qui vient de s’achever fait partie.

La transition alimentaire, vous intéresse ? Depuis longtemps ?
Vous travaillez dans le secteur ? Ou pas du tout ?

L’idée que la coopération est un levier pour booster la transition alimentaire, vous parle ? Mais, sur le terrain, différentes questions vous traversent peut-être…

Comment faire en sorte que les partenaires s’y retrouvent, que la coopération soit efficace ? Comment ne pas s’essouffler ? Quelles sont les complémentarités ? …

Pour travailler ces questions, retrouvez-nous pour une journée d’échanges.

23 September, EU Organic Day, the ideal opportunity to widely celebrate the organic sector and to evaluate Europe’s progress towards achieving its goal of 25% organic land by 2030. Officially launched in 2021 by the European Parliament, the Commission, and the Council of the European Union, this day represents the occasion to, among others, assess trends in consumer demands, continue raising awareness of organic in the supply chain and finally, define new targets for the future of organic in Europe. The European organic movement celebrate this day and use it to raise awareness of organic and its benefits. For three years, many of IFOAM Organics Europe members joined celebrating organic online and also organised their own events celebrating in the spirit of organic’s principles of Health, Ecology, Fairness and Care. These organisations, initiatives and events gave a face and more visibility to the organic movement and sector in September!

At a time when the state of biodiversity is becoming more and more alarming by the day, and the number of farmers installations is steadily declining, local experiments are demonstrating that bringing agriculture and biodiversity closer together can provide solutions both for the preservation of biodiversity and for the farming world, with renewed access to land being a key factor in this success.

In a context in which the European Union is promoting a number of changes for the farming community, notably as part of the Green Pact, the CAP and the National Strategic Plans (NSPs) and the nature restoration law, a change of scale must now take place in order to massify the agro-ecological transition throughout the territories.

Through presentations, on-site workshops and the sharing of experiences, this Seminar aims to contribute to this change of scale by strengthening the dynamics of partnership between the stakeholders involved in the agro-ecological transition through land, in order to influence European public policies in this area, at a time when the European Parliament has been renewed in June.

This seminar will give you the opportunity to :
• discover the innovations implemented by the LIFE Biodiv'Paysanne project and its partners, such as the cross farm diagnosis tool and the non-trading agricultural company dedicated to the preservation of biodiversity,
• discuss the joint challenges of preserving agricultural and natural land,
• draw inspiration from the projects and experiences of the partners present,
• and share your successes and problems, all with a view to identifying common work opportunities.

We organize trips to farms affiliated to the 'Custòdia Agrària' program. This activity aims to bring the reality of farmers closer to the rest of the population while also promoting local products. This field activity begins with a trip to the farm, followed by a guided tour, ending with a tasting of products. In these visits, the visitors can buy products from the farm, subscribe to its mailing list and receive more information directly from the farmers. We defend the role of farmers as food producers and true custodians of the territory!

Outgrow the system
EIN DOKUMENTARFILM ÜBER DEN ÜBERGANG ZU EINEM NACHHALTIGEN WIRTSCHAFTSSYSTEM


”Change the system, not the climate” (auf deutsch „Ändere das System, nicht das Klima“) ist eine gängige Forderung der Klimabewegung. Aber was steckt dahinter? Was für ein System wollen wir eigentlich?

Die ursprüngliche Bedeutung des Wortes „Wirtschaft“ ist „Haushaltsführung“, beschreibt also einen Vorgang des "Haushaltens", also eines Umgangs, der Verteilung und Organisation mit den zur Verfügung stehenden Ressourcen. Die heutige Wirtschaft ist jedoch kein „Haushalten“, sondern verbraucht unsere endlichen natürlichen Ressourcen in einem alarmierenden Tempo.

„Outgrow the System“ erforscht, wie wir zum Wesen des Begriffs zurückkehren und ein Wirtschaftssystem entwickeln können, das wirklich mit unseren knappen Ressourcen umgeht. Jenseits der engen Mainstream-Debatte und der Lehren der Wirtschaftshochschulen entstehen weltweit zahlreiche neue wirtschaftliche Ideen und Praktiken. Sie stellen alte Annahmen in Frage und bieten neue Perspektiven, wie wir unsere Produktion und unseren Konsum umgestalten können. „Outgrow the System“ rückt diese transformativen Ideen in den Vordergrund und feiert die Fülle an Kreativität und Projekten, die es weltweit bereits gibt. Der Film zeigt uns damit eine Welt, in der sich soziale Bewegungen auf der ganzen Welt hinter positiven Visionen versammeln können, anstatt sich nur gegen Dystopien zu stellen.

Im Anschluss an den Film treffen wir die schwedischen Filmemacher*innen online zu einem Gespräch und offenen Austausch.
