Who we are
The Slow Food Foundation for Biodiversity is part of Slow Food and was founded in Florence in 2003 in partnership with the Tuscany Regional Authority.
The Slow Food Foundation is funded through the efforts of the Slow Food movement, by institutions, private companies, other Foundations and anyone interested in supporting projects defending biodiversity.
While it supports projects around the world, its most significant commitment is focused on developing countries, where defending biodiversity not only means improving people’s quality of life, but can mean guaranteeing life itself.
Thanks to the funds and donations raised, the Slow Food Foundation supports projects in defense of food biodiversity in more than 50 countries and promotes a sustainable agriculture that respects the environment, the cultural identity of local people, and promotes animal well-being.
The Slow Food Foundation guarantees transparency in the use of the funds received and, depending on the donor’s country of origin, donations to the Foundation can offer tax benefits.
