Early in 2013, Slow Food Boricua wanted to highlight the essential quantities of Health ( food, community, mindful living, awareness, etc.), and we approach Slow Food International, to see if they wanted to include a health campaign to their movement. Slow Food International loved the idea, but they had ask Puerto Rico to develop a campaign and if Slow Healing is successful they would expand the Slow Healing campaign into a international movement. You can read the actual email message below. Further information about Slow Healing, you can read on the Slow Healing weblog: http://slowhealing.

Hello Elizama and Bartus,
as promised, i talked with Paolo di Croce about the Slow Healing
campaign. We agreed about the fact that this is an important issue for
Slow Food, but in the last years we haven't developed anything like
that. I checked in example with "Slowfood", our italian magazine, and
we haven't published any article on the issue in the past. I spoke
also with Silvia Ceriani, the head of our Communication Office. We all
agree that we should work on this thanks to your help, and i think we
can have two levels:
1) the local/regional level: in which SF Boricua can develop
autonomically this campaign (as you said organizing some activities at
the market and/or compromising others countries as Cuba as well). Of
course SF International will give visibility to these
events/activities through our websites.
2) the international level: we think that we cannot open a campaign
now (like GMO or LAND GRABBING) because we don't have so far too much
"background" on this, like articles, materials, other Convivia or TM
communities working on this issue. But, we can begin to give
visibility to this issue i.e. publishing some of the articles that
you'll write, giving visibility to your activities, trying to link you
with existing and future groups that will have the same focus. I think
that if we work on this issue together, we'll have material and a
network to start a new campaign within the next 12-24 months. What do
you think?
At the moment i shared the documents with Silvia, and she'll send them
to Andrea Pezzana, the nutritionist and teacher at University of
Gastronomic Sciences that normally collaborate with us in nutritional
issues, to have his feedback.
So, we still have to find a path to walk, but i think that step by
step we can work on Slow Healing.
I wait for your comments and thank you two for your work.
Best, Andrea
