Leadership Courses – 2013/14

The first IFOAM Leadership Development Course was successfully concluded in India, and the second course for the South Asian region is already filled, and will commence on 3 April 2013.  The success and increasing demand in South Asia means that we will be launching further courses for 2014 for South Asia as well as East Asia.  Further details will be available soon.
