 Agricultural approach to food sovereignty in Opitciwan 
Obedjiwan (Opitciwan), an Atikamekw community in Upper Mauricie, is working to lay the foundations for a territorialized food system through agriculture. A collaboration between the Obedjiwan community and CISA has been established to develop a model of food sovereignty based on the cultural traits of the Atikamekw. Seven gardening experimentation spaces were co-created with the community and research on agri-food needs was carried out. The collaboration between the community and CISA has enabled the consolidation of projects despite the global crisis of COVID-19. The expertise has grown over the months. Our findings are that seasonality, the relationship to the territory and the sense of well-being greatly influence participation in projects. At the same time, the success of the project was fostered by a set of positive relationships between the participants themselves and the CISA researchers.
