🇮🇹 Italia - Roma | En el panel “Pueblos Indígenas, Sistemas Alimentarios y Recursos Genéticos”, la vicepresidenta de la República, @mjpintoec, destacó el valor transformador de la sabiduría ancestral para erradicar la desnutrición crónica infantil.
💬 “No basta con producir alimentos; debemos asegurar que esa riqueza se quede en las comunidades y nutra a nuestros niños en los territorios”, enfatizó la vicepresidenta.
🌾 Desde el Gobierno Nacional impulsamos proyectos para que con evidencia científica, el conocimiento originario y la educación intercultural las nuevas generaciones produzcan mejor, preserven sus raíces y mejoren la calidad de vida.
Innovation isn't just about new technology, it's about connecting knowledge, communities, policy & investment to build climate-resilient food systems.
