Workshop on Alternatives on Certification for Organic Production
IFOAM has decided that the time is ripe to assess the status of alternative certification schemes around the planet. The Centro Ecologico, located in the rural area surrounding Porto Alegre, Brazil, has been working effectively with "participatory certification" in the Eco Vida Network for many years, and offered to be the hosting organization for a meeting on alternative methods for organic guarantee systems. MAELA, the Latin American Agroecology Movement that unites small farmers from the continent and has been a long time IFOAM member, has decided to co-sponsor the event.
