People’s Food Summit

Regeneration International, in conjunction with our partners, will hold the People’s Food Summit again this year, 2022. This will be the second time this world’s first event is held – a major 24-hour event on World Food day on Oct 16, featuring speakers from every region of our planet. It was a spectacularly successful event, with over 522,000 people from all regions of our world tuning in to watch and listen to our numerous topics.

Because we reached so many people, this event had a very high impact.

This year’s event will be a 24-hour global, participatory, virtual summit starting in Oceania and moving westwards through the time zones of Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Latin America, and North America. Each region will be self-organized, so they are empowered to present the messages and issues that are their priorities.

The People’s Food Summit is a truly participatory summit that empowers the majority of the world’s food producers: the small-holder family farmers, pastoralists, and foresters who produce 70% of the food we eat.

We will present the proven, farmer-based, real-world examples that are the future of our food and farming systems, including agroecology, organic and regenerative farming, permaculture, agroforestry, holistically managed grazing and many other systems.

Regeneration International looks forward to working with our many partners such as the McKnight Foundation, Organic Consumers Association, The Global Alliance for Organic Districts, IFOAM Asia, Navdanya, the International Network of Eco Regions, Savory Hub Africa, Via Organica, AFSA, The League of Organic Municipalities and Cities and BERAS International in hosting the People’s Food Summit on World Food Day.

We look forward to you joining us for an even more significant event on October 16.
