Writing and Editing

Cultivate! can work together with you to undertake research, synthesise grounded experiences, analyse policy, and provide writing and editing support. We produce policy briefs, case studies, guidebooks, academic papers and more. Our focus is always on the co-creation of knowledge for action. 

Research and analysis are invaluable for underpinning the work of organisations, social movements and their wider networks looking to generate and mobilise knowledge, policy and financial support for food systems rooted in agroecology. It can be used to influence key decision-makers, to build capacities of actors involved in advancing food system transformation and to generate support from other audiences.
