#Egypt #MAMIproject #worldfmc 🇪🇬🌍 A new #Egypt #MAMIproject #worldfmc 🇪🇬🌍

A new training session for farmers and FM managers is taking place for the establishment of the first farmers’ market in Alexandria, Egypt. The MaMi project aims, starting from this first market, to create a network of farmers’ markets in Egypt. The coordinator in Egypt for the WFMC is the deputy director of the Alexandria Chamber of Commerce, Eman Seif, who has been following the project from the beginning. Present in Alexandria are Richard McCarthy and Robin Moon, while representing the Fondazione Campagna Amica is Giuseppe Stocchi.

* The lot you see below around the statue ( in Photo 5 )  is where the FM will be!

MAMi – Farmers Markets project, is an initiative financed by the Ministero degli Affari Esteri e della Cooperazione Internazionale and implemented by CIHEAMBari in collaboration with the World Farmers Markets Coalition and promoted by Coldiretti through the Fondazione Campagna Amica. It aims to provide technical support and capacity building for the development of new farmers markets as effective levers to revitalize rural communities, improve livelihoods for family farming and enhance the role of multifunctional agriculture in generating economic, social, and ecological benefits.
Farmers’ markets are the place to connect cities Farmers’ markets are the place to connect cities with the countryside, the place where farmers meet citizens.
