Rediscovering the sacred in agriculture

Rediscovering the sacred in agriculture

A lecture by Vandana Shiva at the 2023 Agricultural Conference at the Goetheanum.

***

The ancient wisdom and ‹sacredness› in original agriculture has long preoccupied Vandana Shiva. How can we rediscover for our times the sacredness in agriculture that still lives in indigenous communities today? Can it become the basis of a new agriculture of the future? This is the question addressed in the evening lecture by Vandana Shiva.

Vandana Shiva, a world-renowned environmental thinker, is the founder of the Research Foundation for Science, Technology and Ecology, Navdanya, and the Bija Vidyapeeth Earth University in Uttarakhand, India.
