IFOAM Europe

Nana Bio B.V. is the proud main sponsor of IFOAM Europe (International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements). We feel it is crucial for us and all other organic companies and organizations to support IFOAM since they serve as one of the most influencial global advocates and platforms for organic agriculture. They foster collaboration and anchor the principles of organic farming in Europe and outside of Europe. Here are some key reasons for such an organization to support IFOAM:

Global representation: IFOAM provides a unified voice for the global organic community. By supporting IFOAM, the organization aligns itself with an international body that represents the interests and values of the organic sector on a global scale.

By supporting IFOAM, the organization contributes to the establishment and promotion of consistent, globally recognized organic standards, ensuring the integrity and authenticity of organic products.
Knowledge Sharing and Networking: IFOAM facilitates the exchange of knowledge and best practices among organic stakeholders worldwide. This allows the organization to stay updated on the latest developments, innovations, and research within the organic sector, fostering continuous improvement and growth.
Advocacy for Sustainable Policies: IFOAM engages in advocacy efforts to promote policies that support organic and sustainable agriculture. By supporting IFOAM, the organization actively participates in shaping policies that align with its values, contributing to a more favorable regulatory environment for organic businesses.
