The founder of Slow Food and Terra Madre, Carlo Petrini, died on Thursday evening aged 76 at his home in Bra, in the province of Cuneo.
“From his great vision and his love for the common good, for relationships between human beings, for nature and biodiversity were born Slow Food (1986), the international Terra Madre network and the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Pollenzo (2004). He was also co‑founder of the Laudato si’ Communities (2017), inspired by Pope Francis’s encyclical,” Slow Food recalled in a statement.
