Climate is not democratic. Agriculture is tied to place. Tomatoes thrive in the sunny south, while mushrooms love fresh air and moisture in the plateau or mountain areas. Basil is abundant in Mediterranean countries; cloudberries thrive across the “Arctic” zone, and nowhere else.
The need to overcome these environmental challenges has only bolstered our existing, highly globalized food system, where food consumption is driven by marketing, complex supply chains, spanning across different countries with different climates, social contexts and regulations. This has global trade impacts in terms of GHG emissions, pesticides’ use and food safety, and unfair distribution of profits.
Indoor farming and controlled agriculture can address these challenges and can play an important role in the future of food security. However, they need a substantial initial economic investment and involve high levels of R&D and know-how, especially for plant cultivation protocols. Despite the vivid trend in the development of large scale, and also small scale indoor farming systems, current approaches focus on the development of proprietary knowledge that may not be accessible to lower socioeconomic status households.
These complex challenges require a different approach that must go beyond traditional forms of innovation. To reconcile the disruptive potential of technology with the social texture of local communities and the ecological cycles of nature, we need creativity, playfulness, courage, determination and a new socio-economic paradigm.
The eSMART project aims to further scale an inclusive model based on a very simple, yet powerful concept, namely indoor farming, decolonization of knowledge and innovation through education and training while building social capital and enhance mindful living in harmony with nature’s evolutionary path, to deliver co-benefits on the three dimensions of sustainability (climate/environmental, economic, social/health, including biodiversity )

The first time I encountered the dedicated team from Good Heart, I was greeted not just with supplies but with genuine empathy. It wasn’t just about distributing essentials; it was about acknowledging our pain, our fears, and our dreams for a better tomorrow.
