This is a recording of a presentation which was originally given by Dr Romina De Angelis at the UKFIET conference on Education for Social and Environmental Justice in September 2023.

Romina worked with Dr Frank Tchuwa and Dr Daimon Kambewa from LUANAR to share information about how FRNs can promote knowledge co-creation in a way that is socially just and inclusive and reflects agroecological values. In the video, Romina introduces the concept of agroecology, Frank presents an example of FRNs in Malawi, then Romina sums up how the FRN approach can contribute to social and environmental justice.
