Youth. A Bridge Between Generations

After decades of migrating to cities, rural youth in Latin America are returning to their territories, driven by growing interest in agroecology and sustainable production. Despite significant challenges such as limited land access, job insecurity, and lack of academic opportunities, these young people are revitalizing traditional agricultural practices combined with modern technologies. Through cooperatives, agroecological schools, and youth networks, they promote food sovereignty, gender equality, and sustainable development. Despite structural difficulties, rural youth are fostering renewed appreciation of their lifestyles, community practices, and projects aimed at the common good.
