Organic and agroecological districts. Methodological approaches for Inclusive and sustainable food systems in Argentina

We are going through a difficult global period where despite having the means to feed the entire global population in a sustainable way, reality indicates that More than 820 million people in the world suffer from hunger whereas 1.9 billion adults are overweight or obese, in a critical environmental crisis. Argentina is a paradigmatic case of the current dysfunctional food system. On the one hand, it exports large quantities of food goods to chains that are nutritionally inefficient and environmentally polluting, while its population lives in alarming levels of malnutrition. The present work addresses, based on the Sustainable Development Goals, Organic Agriculture, Agroecology and inclusive territorial development approaches, the different possible alternatives for shifting to more inclusive and harmonious models.
