Which policies affect the conservation, exchange, and use of seeds? Dig deeper into the political goals of the European Green Deal, European legislation on the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity, means to combat biopiracy, rules on plant health and seed marketing. #Arche Noah, #Kybele and #Let’s Liberate Diversity! invite you to follow the activities of SEEDING EU, to reinforce the capacity of associations and individuals working to conserve and increase seed diversity to understand and monitor the public policies that impact the conservation and use of seeds. ACTIVITIES of SEEDING EUROPE In order to palliate the lack of knowledge and capacity of seed diversity actors in Europe to follow and engage in European policy-making processes and start cooperating with each other transnationally, virtual training with two modules will be provided on the European legal landscape. Two modules of training, consisting of two webinars each, will be provided on Zoom : (1) Introduction to European law-making and the role of institutions (decision-making processes, European institutions, composition and roles); (2) Seed marketing legislation and its current reform (applicable legislation, general principles, derogations that address seed diversity, current reform process and policy options).
