Training promoters. Methodological Guide to Agroecology: Local agroecology schools build everyone’s capacities

This guide is intended as a tool to help strengthen ancestral abilities, skills and knowledge required by participants in agroecology training. It will also reinforce topics already covered or orient and heighten their practical application, to resolve concrete problems facing small farmers, as they transition participatorily and jointly toward agriculture better suited to rural families.

 

Since this document brings together the basic, initial elements of agroecological practices, it will be improved increasingly by agroecological farmers’ and facilitators’ experience, as training and field work generate greater expertise and knowledge from the families in each reality and locality, who are interested in working with agroecological production.
