DJESA is a series of half-day discussions on food sovereignty, organised by the Uni4Coop consortium (Eclosio, FUCID, Louvain Coopération, ULB-Coopération), Humundi and Vétérinaires Sans Frontières, on various French-speaking campuses in Belgium.
By combining cultural events (plays, films, dance, etc.) and in-depth workshops in sub-groups led by experts in the field or from the voluntary sector, DJESA helps students from all backgrounds to gain a better understanding of today's food systems so that they can envisage other models for tomorrow! This gives them the opportunity to step outside the academic framework, debate, adopt new perspectives and imagine alternatives to meet the challenges of access to land, globalisation and agricultural policies, in order to support the development of healthy, humane and sustainable agriculture.
