Conference Details:
This year's Gathering in Chicago, IL in partnership with Growing Power Inc.  is offering exciting opportunity to explore this year's theme, "H.E.A.L. Our Food System," with a variety of local  groups and growers. This Gathering will reinforce the learning and sharing from previous gatherings to move toward a vision of "Community/ Unity/ Opportunity/ Equity/ Harmony."

We come together this year at our Gathering to continue our work as leaders on the wide array of issues that have manifested as a result of injustice in the world and to find a common bond and fellowship to specifically use the dismantling of racism in our food system as a powerful tool for healing our communities, our environment and ourselves. The workshops and activities will be hands-on, interactive and will showcase the work being done locally in the Chicago area as well as nationally and internationally. Explore how we can better grow food and justice within ourselves and communities!

The Gathering has several key goals:  

To build networks and alliances between GFJI members and affiliates  
To strengthen and support leadership prowess and confidence  
To facilitate anti-racism, dismantling racism and multicultural alliance building workshops and trainings geared toward all levels of experience  
To share stories, engage in dialogues and build community  
To take actions that lead to food equity, sovereignty, policy change and increased mental, physical and spiritual health for all.

The Growing Food and Justice for All (GFJI) is a comprehensive network that views dismantling racism as a core principle which brings together social change agents from diverse sectors who are working to bring about new, healthy, and impoverished communities throughout the world
