Edward Mukiibi

Edward Mukiibi was born in 1986 in Uganda, where he lives and works on his family run agro-ecological farm. He is an agronomist, food educator, social entrepreneur and the President of Slow Food. After graduating from the Makerere University in Kampala he worked in the field of organic agriculture. He started his work on sustainability during his second year at university by vying for leadership positions in his faculty, which he used as a platform to advocate for, and promote, agriculture as a viable career path. Edward went on to establish a project for Developing Innovations in School Cultivation as a vehicle through which he could continue this work on a larger scale. In 2008, after participating at Terra Madre in Italy, he began to play a pivotal role in the development of the Slow Food Gardens in Africa project and in the overall growth of the Slow Food network in Uganda. He has served on the executive committee of Slow Food since 2012 and became Vice-President in 2014. In 2018 he spent a year in Italy to attend the Master of Gastronomy: World Food Culture and Mobility at the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Pollenzo, Italy. He was appointed President of Slow Food at the International Congress in July 2022.
