Community Agroecology Network (CAN) is an international organization actively working in eight regions of Mexico and Central America. We have been using an agroecological approach to food systems change for 12 years. Our strategy is driven by community-based action research partnerships. At CAN, agroecology brings together scientists and farmers to produce knowledge and develop practices for a more sustainable food system. While ecologically-sound production practices are at the core of agroecology, they are not viable without vibrant local food economies that foster fair market channels and farmer control of seeds.
Our programs promote:
    Next generation food systems leaders
    Just food economies
    Agroecological management practices
    Food security and nutrition
