The 2015 Lavazza Calendar presented today

From Nadia, the proud argan oil paladine in Morocco, to John, the guardian of Lare pumpkins in Kenya; and from Anna, who fights for the quality of salted millet couscous on Fadiouth Island in Senegal, to Asnakech, who stands guard over coffee estates in Ethiopia. The 2015 Lavazza Calendar - produced with Slow Food and featuring photographs by Steve McCurry and creative direction by Armando Testa - is a photographic journey through the stories of everyday heroism of the Earth Defenders: women and men who every day defend their land and their projects in Africa with courage and devotion. In this way Lavazza and Slow Food take a stand beside all the Earth Defenders and food traditions: they are symbols of hope for local communities and spokespeople of the potential for development and a better future.

The 12 photographs by McCurry, which immortalise the spirit, strength and humanity of the Earth Defenders, are on show at the Salone del Gusto e Terra Madre 2014 (Turin, October 23-27) and for the first time the 2015 Lavazza Calendar is on sale in a limited edition to support the “10,000 food gardens in Africa” project...
