Women Ensuring Food Security and Nutrition: Forgotten Foods Cooking Contest

Women Ensuring Food Security and Nutrition: Forgotten Foods Cooking Contest

In celebration of the International Women’s Day last March 8, the consortium Asian Farmers’ Association for Sustainable Rural Development (AFA) and La Via Campesina (LVC) invites female members of the farmers’ organizations under the Asia-Pacific Farmers Program (APFP) and Farmers Organizations for Asia (FO4A) to join the “Women Ensuring Food Security and Nutrition: Forgotten Foods Cooking Contest”. In this cooking contest, the challenge is to prepare native dishes that will highlight the use of forgotten indigenous/native/heirloom food crops as one of the main ingredients. Women farmers, fishers, indigenous peoples, forest users, herders, and pastoralists who are members of a farmer group under the APFP-FO4A platform can join in this region-wide cooking contest. For the mechanics and other details, please check the Asia-Pacific Farmers Forum website here.
