The Hungry for Rights project aims at raising public awareness of development issues with a focus on the topic of Alternative Food Systems (AFS) as local and bottom-up solutions to fight hunger and promote social cohesion.

AFSs are community based networks characterized by geographical proximity and a social organization oriented to mutual exchange and they are an evidence of new dynamics of social-economical development.

Within the global agenda on Food Security, these models constitute reliable alternatives to constrains arisen from the trade globalization.

Starting from this topic, relevant both in developing countries and in the North, the project pursues the design of a mutual learning education process that considers in each stage South and North perspectives.
