The AgroEcology Fund (AEF) is a multi-donor fund supporting healthy and sustainable food systems around the world. Many current food systems not only feed an obesity epidemic, but their fossil-fuel dependence pumps out more than a quarter of all greenhouse gases. Industrial practices degrade forests, farmland and water sources. The Fund supports leading small farmer organizations and advocates seeking a fair living for small farmers based on sustainable land and water use. Small farmers today grow over 70% of food consumed globally and can restore degraded soil and ecosystems through agroecological practices. We link organizations and movements that advance agroecological solutions locally, regionally and globally.
