Start planning your activity for the International Year of Millets 2023! You can download a set of information materials in several languages from the Communications Toolkit. From food tastings, recipe sharing groups and cooking demonstrations to sports activities, cultural performances, panel discussions or lectures, there are many ways to introduce people to millets.
The Millets CoP provides a platform for farmers’ organizations, cooperatives, civil society organizations, research centres, NGOs, policymakers, decision-makers and the private sector working in millet value chain with the common goal of identifying opportunities and gaps to promote a shift towards sustainable food systems.
Have you ever tried millets? It’s never too late. Millets are full of dietary fibre, antioxidants, protein and minerals, including iron. They’re also gluten free with a low glycaemic index to address intolerances and diabetes.
Get to know their diversity and the variety of dishes they can produce by trying one of these recipes.
If you are a municipality, outdoor advertiser, or transportation company, we are counting on you to promote millets and encourage more people to try them. Use the poster, banner or promo video on billboards or screens on street corners, shopping centres, buses or trams, in city subways, cinemas, airports and more.
Contact us if you have special requirements and we will be happy to help.
