The Seeds of Vandana Shiva showing at COP 27

We’re excited to announce that clips from The Seeds of Vandana Shiva will be shown at COP27, in Egypt this week.

The clips will be shown by The International Coalition on Climate and Agriculture (ICCA), an alliance of civil society leaders, farmers, Indigenous peoples, and other key stakeholders at three important Green Zone events.

Their mission? To promote ecological agriculture as essential to addressing the climate crisis.
Industrial food and farming is responsible for up to 30% of greenhouse gas emissions, yet there is still little focus by the world’s leaders on the link between agriculture and climate chaos. If we don’t transition to ecological farming, any hope of climate stability, or food security, will be unattainable.

The ICCA and other aligned organizations will be in Egypt to ensure that this truth is heard, and to build awareness around the regenerative benefits of small-scale organic farming and food.

We invite you to join the conversation and this important movement for education and change. Host a screening of The Seeds of Vandana Shiva during COP27, and share Vandana’s story and vision with your community.
