First Chilean Conference on Agroecology

The First Chilean Congress of Agroecology, organized by the University of La Frontera and the Chilean chapter of the Latin American Scientific Society of Agroecology (SOCLA-Chile), will be held at the Pucón Campus of the University of La Frontera during the 17 and 18 of October 2019. Under the slogan "Agroecology: Transcending practices towards food sustainability", this event will feature guest speakers from the United States, Switzerland, Bolivia, Argentina, Spain, Uruguay and Chile. The organizers want this congress to be a meeting place for agroecological knowledge generated from different perspectives and people: scientific-academic, technical-professional, farmer-peasant and political-activist.

The thematic areas in which the congress will focus correspond to the following:

-Agroecological Practices and Management
-Policies and Rural-Food Development
-Feminism and social movements
-Agricultural / food systems, Society and Environment
-Agroecosystems and Ecosystem Services

Dr. René Montalba, president of the organizing commission, stressed that this Congress is proposed as a different instance of the classic disciplinary scientific meetings. In fact, “since the very essences that make up Agroecology as the 'transdiciplinary critical science', 'proposed sustainable technical-productive 'and' agrarian-food social movement ', make it a space of confluence for scientists from the most diverse disciplines, fields and types of knowledge; agricultural producers and producers of various scales and professionals linked to the production, distribution and / or consumption of food; decision makers of various organizations, as well as politicians and activists linked to social movements or agrarian and food processes ”
