When it comes to agroecology, one of the main questions is: How can agroecology feed the world? For decades now, frontline organizations have been co-creating solutions in the four corners of the globe to recover soils and agrobiodiversity and advance the production of healthy food. 

Pioneering initiatives demonstrate that successful agroecological transitions also require thinking beyond production. It is critical to address food supply flows from the perspective of guaranteeing the human right to adequate food for all people.
