Jóvenes innovando la América Latina rural

Con el auge de los teléfonos inteligentes y las redes sociales, las comunidades rurales están ahora conectadas globalmente. En nuestra primera edición en español de Farms. Food. Future., exploramos cómo los jóvenes rurales e indígenas de América Latina utilizan estas plataformas para promover su cultura y la conservación ambiental.

Viajaremos por la región, explorando la producción de café agroecológico en Perú, hasta México, donde una comunidad indígena mazahua está integrando energías renovables a sus prácticas agrícolas, pasaremos por Bolivia para conocer sobre el cuidado tradicional de llamas. También conoceremos a jóvenes emprendedores en Colombia, terminando nuestro recorrido en la ruta turística del “Cacao de la Sierra”, donde se celebra la riqueza del cacao local y su potencial como motor de desarrollo.
