In the video, Nicolás Jacquet emphasizes the need for legislative reform to better integrate young people into agrifood systems. He highlights that education systems should teach the role and value of cooperatives, enabling youth to understand and engage with them. He also stresses the importance of reducing bureaucratic hurdles that currently make cooperative structures difficult to navigate.
