Launched in 2021 and funded by the European Union through the DeSIRA initiative, the project is led by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS) and the Centre International de Hautes Etudes Agronomiques Méditerranéennes (CIHEAM- Bari) in partnership with the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT. It brings together farmers, researchers, schools, chefs, community leaders, artists and public institutions to revive these culturally significant, nutritious and climate-resilient treasures. At the heart of the project is 21 villages, a wealth of enthusiasm, and a firm belief that sustainable futures are rooted in local biodiversity.
