Daniel Hale, from international development charity Progressio, will share some tales from a recent trip to Zimbabwe where organic small-scale farming is changing lives. And just back from the UN Conference on Sustainable Development, Rio+20, where Progressio has been campaigning for access to water for livelihoods, he’ll share some of the ways that the global system needs reforming. That’s small-scale farming right from the grassroots to the top of global decision-making. Should be quite a night.
