Edward Mukiibi, Slow Food International vice president and tropical agronomist, is the proud defender of sustainable agriculture and biodiversity. Photojournalist Steve McCurry partnered with Italian coffee importer Lavazza to create a calendar to honor the people like Mukiibi whom they call the Earth Defenders. The 2015 Lavazza calendar is a photographic journey through the stories of women and men who every day defend their land and their projects in Africa with courage and devotion.
