Thousands of farmers and activists across six continents will come together at the Oxford Real Farming Conference (ORFC Global) on Jan. 7 to show that small-scale farming can fix the climate and ecological crisis.
ORFC Global delegates, including representatives of indigenous communities from the Amazon to Alaska, are pushing for food, farming and nature to be at the top of the COP26 agenda this November.
Farmers around the world who practice climate-friendly methods, including regenerative and organic farming, will share their success stories over the course of the seven-day global conference.
Colin Tudge, Oxford Real Farming Conference co-founder, said: “Agriculture in its present form is both a cause and a victim of all that is wrong with the world – from social injustice and political unrest to mass extinction and climate change. It is treated as “a business like any other” and required above all to compete for profit in the global market."
