Abstract
A process of co-research with farmers in the rural area of Bogotá, documented traditional culinary practices and held meetings to discuss their territorial implications and the challenges of their transformations. The dialogues promoted the reactivation of memories and perceptions, linking the space of kitchens and territories, and included conversations on the risks and opportunities of innovations triggered by urban-rural relations. This research sheds light on the persistence of linkages related to local biodiversity, which represent a key asset for the conservation of biocultural diversity and of the material and immaterial heritage of Bogota.
