The "My food vision is..." campaign, led by the Global Indigenous Youth Caucus, seeks to address the challenges faced by Indigenous Youth and provide sustainable solutions for food systems, while also combatting climate change. The Indigenous Youth created a position with their hands, to symbolize mutual respect, reciprocity, and a need to protect Indigenous Peoples' food systems, highlighting the importance of supporting Indigenous Youth and Mother Earth. The campaign was launched live at the World Food Forum in October 2022, making strides towards the upcoming 2023 UN Global Indigenous Youth Forum.

The Campaign’s 4 Key Messages are connected to FAO’s Four Betters:

1. Better Production: Indigenous youth connect intergenerational science, knowledge and techniques that are the keys to sustainable food generation.

2. Better Nutrition: Nothing can substitute the nutrition of Indigenous Peoples' foods. Keep the lifelines alive for Indigenous children.

3. Better Environment: Led by the teachings of our Elders, Indigenous youth are learning to follow the laws of nature where responsibility, servitude, and reciprocity are the ways to revive a healthy planet.

4. Better Life: Our foods are our Relatives; if they are healthy, we are healthy.

Unite with Us – align yourself with Indigenous Youth. Listen to us, Learn from us, and respectfully partner with us.
