Seed Policy reform: the proposed EU regulation on the production and marketing of seeds and other plant reproductive material

We invite you to an online workshop on the current status of the negotiations on the proposed new PRM regulation, hosted by Arche Noah, the Geneva Academy of International Humanitarian Law
and Human Rights, and the European Coordination Let’s Liberate Diversity. The aim of the workshop is to provide cultivated plant diversity actors and peasant organisations with information on the current state of the political process, and to foster effective action and collaboration by these actors to advocate for a regulation that protects and promote diversity and the implementation of the right to food and the right to seeds recognised in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Peasants and Other People Working in Rural Areas (UNDROP).

The workshop will entail a mixture of presentations and discussions in plenary and break out groups. There will be translation provided from English to French and German. Please be aware that the presentations and discussions on Thursday will be the basis of the work on Friday.

Please register using this link by 7 October 2024:
