Conflictfood wants to cultivate peace!
Careful research, numerous conversations, constant contact,
regional know how and of course some tastings on the spot: We are
searching for the best regional delicacies from conflict regions
and encourage direct fair trade with small farmers. Our aim create
long lasting perspectives for the people affected by conflict and
to fight the causes of forced flight!
