What is a National Chapter

A WFF National Chapter is a self-organized national youth platform aligned to the principles and mission of the WFF and convened by a local network of partners/organizations. WFF National Chapters undertake activities and projects in line with the WFF's mission, tracking and mobilizing youth-led local action to help achieve more sustainable agrifood systems in their respective communities, cities and countries.

With National Chapters, young people have a platform to initiate and sustain solution building in their communities, inform policymaking in their countries and regions, and build lasting transformation in their local agrifood systems.
