FéminAs sees the return to the villages as an opportunity for the future of the new generations.

FéminAs, the International Conference on Women, Gastronomy and the Demographic Challenge, has established itself over its four editions as a platform to make visible the contribution of women to gastronomy and rural communities, as a driving force in agri-food businesses and restaurants, and as custodians and transmitters of cuisine and memory. A memory that is not in contradiction with the future, but the way to build it.
