IFOAM works on behalf of the organic movement to not only increase
support for organic farming, but to build the capicity necessary for
farmers throughout the world to make the transition to organic
agriculture.
Through a myriad of projects, IFOAM develops tools for training organic
farmers, producer groups, inspectors and others, supports the
participation of people and organizations from developing countries on
IFOAM committees and internal bodies and events, and is harmonizing
international trade in organic products.
IFOAM plays and important in other international social and
environmental initiatives like the IUCN, The World Conservation Union,
the International Social and Environmental Labeling Alliance (ISEAL)
and the International Fair Trade Association (IFAT), and promotes the
mission and goals of IFOAM.
IFOAM actively participates in international agricultural and
environmental negotiations with the United Nations and multilateral
institutions to further the interests of the organic agricultural
movement worldwide. IFOAM is uniquely recognised for taking on this
important role.
IFOAM greatly acknowledges its sponsors for making these programs and projects possible.
