Yac road journey
Explore the Youth Agroecology Caravan’s travels to diverse agroecological sites. Join us for hands-on learning and community engagements as we promote sustainable and equitable food systems.
The YAC Road Journey is an exciting and immersive experience designed to empower and engage youth in the principles and practices of agroecology. This journey brings together young farmers, entrepreneurs, and researchers to travel across Cambodia and South East Asia.
During the journey, the participants will visit agroecological farms, innovative projects, and organizations that are at the forefront of promoting sustainable and regenerative agriculture. The road journey serves as a dynamic learning frame where participants can witness firsthand the impact of agroecological practices, engage in hands-on activities, and participate in interactive workshops and discussions with committed farmers.
The YAC Road Journey not only aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of young individuals but also to foster a network of passionate agroecology advocates who are committed to building a sustainable and fair food system.
Through this journey, participants will gain valuable insights, share experiences, and develop new ideas that can be implemented in their own communities, driving the agroecology movement forward in Cambodia.
Travel
YAC is the opportunity for young people, sometimes from rural areas, to discover other provinces in Cambodia and beyond. You will discover new places, new contexts, showcasing different types of agriculture and facing intercultural exchanges.
Youth group
As a group of young like minded people committed to agroecology and sustainable agriculture development, you will learn about teamwork and co-creation, you will be led into participatory workshops and debates, and you will share a unique experience throwing the basis for strong friendships.
Sustainable agriculture practices
We will be visiting a diversity of farms, covering a wide range of productions. From vegetable production to animal raising, including beekeeping and conservation agriculture, you will discover some of the latest innovations taking place in this region. YAC participants will have privileged exchanges with inspiring farmers and entrepreneurs about their practices and about their own journey.
Agroecology values
the farm visits, the discussions and debates should provide plenty of material to approach the conceptual part of agroecology. What meanings does this word hide? What values are you defending when you promote agroecology? What is an agroecological farm system? How does it include social aspects? YAC should provide food for thought and collective answers to apprehend this complex concept.
Network
going from farm to farm and sharing YAC outcomes with the people we met will connect agroecology stakeholders with the YAC group and with each other as well. Broadening agroecology networks in SEA will enhance knowledge sharing and accelerate the development of agroecology.
Communication about agroecology
YAC is calling for creativity and inspiration! You will be trained in creating communication supports such as case-study reports and videos, using social media to share this kind of knowledge, and share your ideas and values.
