This session brings together diverse voices to explore how agroecology and animal welfare can drive food systems transformation in the context of climate change. Speakers will address the impacts of industrialized food systems on people, animals, forests, and the planet, and present concrete alternatives already being implemented. Key themes include the transition toward diversified and sustainable protein sources, the role of public policies such as the Agroecological School Meals Program in supporting farmers and ensuring healthy diets, and practical experiences such as organic egg production that align animal welfare with climate goals.
The discussion will also highlight how global initiatives can inspire local policies and actions, creating a two-way exchange between local innovation and international agendas. The session aims to encourage participants to commit to advancing agroecology and animal welfare as interconnected pillars of climate action.
