Dr. Vandana Shiva
Saturday Keynote Address
Vandana Shiva, renowned researcher, author and eco-feminist
is giving one of three keynote addresses on Saturday, November 2.
Dr. Shiva's work epitomizes the philosophy of the Bioneers movement. While it is true that many have explored the idea of living in balance with the planet, Vandana Shiva has sparked a movement that lifts up the fundamental rights of nature over those of the corporate-led global economic framework that has brought us to the brink of economic and ecological disaster.
Dr. Shiva's keynote address will show us that a city, like any living system, needs food for its nourishment and metabolism. The future of the city, she says, lies in gardens and organic connections to the countryside - not in asphalt or jungles of concrete.
Attend our gathering on Saturday and listen to Dr. Shiva talk about her work at Navdanya, and how protecting the biological and cultural diversity of seed - currently threatened by corporations - is the basis of living food and living communities. Learn more - then read and consider joining the grassroots by signing Vandana Shiva's Declaration on Seed Freedom!
