《有機農業的前世今生》
有機農業的歷史根源與當今農業息息相關。透過探索有機農業的歷史，我們可以看出當前的做法是如何深深植根於傳統和歷史智慧。本次講座中，梁仕池教授將闡述有機耕作的歷史起源如何影響當今農業，並講解有機農業技術的連續性及演變過程。周思中博士將分享他現時在香港擔任有機農民的親身經歷，並將他的生活與歷史上（即20世紀以來）有機農民的生活進行比較。是次論壇與多個可持續發展目標（SDGs）相關，包括SDG 2（消除飢餓）、SDG 8（體面工作和經濟增長）、SDG 9（產業、創新和基礎設施）、SDG 11（可持續城市和社區）與SDG 12（負責任的消費與生產）等。

Exploring Organic Farming – Conventional Wisdom and Modern Agriculture
Organic farming establishes a strong connection between its historical roots and its present-day practice. By exploring the history of organic farming, we can discern how current practices are deeply rooted in traditional and historical wisdom. In the upcoming seminar, Professor LEUNG will shed light on the intricate relationship between organic farming practices today and their historical origins, providing valuable insights into the continuity and evolution of organic farming techniques. Dr CHOW will share his hands-on experience in being an organic farmer in Hong Kong nowadays and compare his life with an organic farmer in history (meaning since 20th century).This forum is highly relevant to several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in particular, SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).
