Thomas Abouleish is representing SEKEM in the panel with the title “A Plea for Socio-Ecological Sustainability in Globalized Value Chains” at the 19th Organic World Congress in New Delhi, India.
The market’s current push toward higher levels of social equity in organic value chains will be discussed. Both associations will share their experiences with concepts such as fair trade, the promotion of social responsibility towards employees in organic production and the effort to guarantee these values through certification and communicate them through labelling or product branding.
