Today morning we held a successful press briefing for our #KeepYourLandKeepYourSeed campaign at Hotel Africana!
With a strong turnout from our partners and the media, we engaged in insightful discussions about preserving our land and indigenous seeds for future generations.
It was indeed exciting for the community in Amolatar District to engage with some indigenous seeds/foods that they had not seen in a long time. Thank you FAPAD, for organising the 2nd Indigenous Seed and Food Fair.
#KeepYourLandKeepYourSeed
The @keepyourland is a campaign initiative that aims at restoring the lost local/indigenous seeds and restore the lost land productivity for food sovereignty.
Feel free to join the campaign coordinated by @LEMU 💪💪🎊🎊🎊
'The campaign envisions to create a directory where farmers in different regions such as Teso, Lango, Acholi, and elsewhere in Uganda can exchange indigenous seeds among themselves to enhance and broaden preservation of such seeds' Dr. Theresa Auma.
