To fulfill its mission as facilitator of the worldwide organic movement, IFOAM depends on a system of internal structures and individuals operating in response to the Federation's evolving plans and objectives.
Starting in 2005, IFOAM will guide organic movements toward the five central goals stipulated in our Program 2008, which also provides a work plan for the four-year period. Developing membership, Strengthening the Principles of Organic Agriculture, Promoting organic agriculture and markets, and improving organizational management are the core themes developed by the World Board for the current period.
As the Board is elected by the General Assembly, these two bodies exist in a dynamic relationship and our work plans and goals are only adopted after input from both entities. In addition, a number of committees serve to ensure thorough and efficient work on specific subject areas, while staff at the Head Office manage the overall functioning of the Federation.
As an independent, global, non-profit organization with over 750 member organizations, IFOAM has a rich history that spans over three decades. Our development will continues on all levels, from objectives to human resources. |
