Our campaigns and policy work is rooted in a vision of creating a better food, farming and land-use system for all based on the principles of agroecology and food sovereignty.
To achieve this, our mission is fivefold:
- To advocate for our members’ interests across all sectors on a UK level, as well as in England, Wales and Scotland and Northern Ireland
- To support diverse new entrants into agroecological farming, forestry and land work
- To advocate for more sustainable and agroecological land-use systems and farming practices
- To build and support the UK food sovereignty movement
- To stand and act in solidarity with peasant struggles across the globe.
Our work is grounded in evidence drawn from academic research as well as from our members’ experiences, and we actively engage with universities and independent researchers through the Agroecology Research Collaboration to ensure the research needs of our members are met.
