How can local agriculture be a form of resistance to the current industrial food model? Cuba has years of experience in this area, and local initiatives are emerging in Brussels.
In Cuba, 70% of vegetables come from organic urban agriculture.
Viva Salud promotes an alternative to the current economic system, which does not respect the environment or the populations of the world. Deforestation, mining, the plundering of fresh water, industrial agriculture, etc. are all examples of activities that destroy the environment and have a negative impact on climate change.
Local and organic farming is a form of resistance to the current industrial food model, which is destructive to the environment. These citizen resistance movements, which are taking place in Belgium but also around the world, can only be sustainable if they are supported by the government, as is the case in Cuba.
