This fourth edition, which will continue until June 10, will focus on local consumption and food sustainability in schools, as announced in a statement received yesterday by EnQuête.
In addition, this festival “aims to develop a citizenship committed to the promotion of a fairer and more sustainable agri-food system, through the screening of film sessions, sharing and discussion of initiatives taken by family farms to improve food security and nutrition in Senegal.
