On International Earth Day this discussion will provide an opportunity to disseminate the work of scholarship holders of the Research and Training Programme on Andean Agroecological Systems of Latin American Council of Social Sciences (CLACSO) and McKnight Foundation. This is the result of the work that over the course of four years has consolidated a community of practice with the participation of prestigious academics from different Latin American, American and European universities.

The research carried out in local communities, with native peoples in Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador in ecosystems over 2000 metres above sea level, offers important findings for global and national plans to sustain agroecology, food sovereignty, land rights and territories, as well as ways to stop climate change with the ancestral learning embodied in the concept of Good Living.

This event is the second in a series of talks organised by the Programme that promotes local, regional and global public policies and the 2030 Agenda. The event is organised within the framework of the CLACSO-McKnight Foundation Research and Training Programme on Andean Agroecological Systems.
