SFB and the Slow Food Youth Network ( SFYN) have collaborated on ways to bring more opportunities for young Puerto Ricans to the global market. On Nov. 11 2014, SFB member Camille Collazo had a one on one conversation with SFYN member, Francesco Scaglia; on the possibilities of our union. Here's a brief summary of their conversation.

Subject: Francesco Meeting Brief (Slow Food Youth Network)
To: Bartus Allen,
Dear Bartus,
The meeting with Francesco was really great. We introduced ourselves and spoke about our current projects. On my behalf I briefly explained RICO, mentioned the organizations in Puerto Rico that work for farmers and on food policy, plus an overall feel of our island situation with healthy food production. I explained my motivations for working with Slow Food Network and he explained the programs and activities they are working on. Here are some examples:
The 6 Months Academy
How to Connect the Countryside and the City
Online Meet up/Hangout for farmers and citizens
Disco Soups to fight food waste
The major motivation for the Slow Food Youth Network is to raise awareness about food issues in a smart fun way so that young people 20–30's will be inspired to participate and be advocates for change.

Also, how to facilitate exchange of knowledge with international campaigns made by young food activists.
He will send me some guidelines with more information, but as he told me, after Terra Madre they want to update the content. Also we'll work on event brainstorming to start ideas on how to introduce Slow Food Youth Network in Puerto Rico.
Thank you Bartus!
