Farming Matters | 29.3 |September 2013
As citizens of global society, we need to make choices today; on the future of our food, our landscapes, our culture and the education of our children.
The articles in this issue of Farming Matters show that in different parts of the world, and in a wide range of educational settings, there are inspired and visionary educators at work, giving education a new meaning as a driver in rural transformation towards just and sustainable societies. Let us join forces, get inspired and inspire. This is no rocket science, we can all be part of the change we want to see.
