A geopolitical tension thousands of kilometers away is quietly revealing how interconnected and fragile our food systems are – including in Europe. But step by step, the effects travel. ➡️ Insurance, transport and gas itself become more expensive. ➡️ Fertilizer production depends on natural gas. ➡️ Fertilizer prices rise. ➡️ Farmers face higher costs or lower yields. ➡️ And eventually, food prices begin to shift. 🎥 In this video, Charlotte Pavageau, policy expert at Biovision Foundation, unpacks why: ⚡ Energy security and food security are deeply interconnected ⚡ Fertilizer dependency makes global agriculture vulnerable to shocks ⚡ And why these disruptions hit some regions much harder than others 💡 At the same time, this moment raises a bigger question for policymakers and practitioners: 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗹-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀? The answer may lie in approaches like #agroecology that strengthen local autonomy, reduce external inputs, and build resilience from the ground up.

Was haben Kochkurse in einem Armenviertel in Nairobi und eine Spitalküche in Graubünden gemeinsam? Beide Orte zeigen, wie Ernährung Menschen stärkt, Gemeinschaften verbindet und neue Perspektiven eröffnet. Treffen Sie am Biovision-Symposium 2025 am 22. November im Volkshaus Zürich engagierte Bäuerinnen, Jungunternehmer und Pionierinnen aus Kenia und der Schweiz. Sie erzählen, wie ihre Arbeit für gesunde Ernährung, faire Märkte und nachhaltige Landwirtschaft konkret wirkt: Von der syntropischen Landwirtschaft in Makueni, Kenia, bis zur Spitalküche in Graubünden. 📅 22. November 2025, 14–17 Uhr 📍 Volkshaus Zürich | Eintritt frei | Deutsch/Englisch mit Simultanübersetzung 👉 Jetzt kostenlos anmelden #Biovision #Symposium2025 #Ernährungssysteme #GesundeErnährung #Agrarökologie #Nachhaltigkeit
