Their accomplishments are tangible proof that sustainable food and farming systems within our planetary boundaries are not a distant ideal but an unfolding reality. By pushing boundaries - whether in farming practice, food processing, retail, or community engagement - these projects light a path toward a more resilient, equitable, and vibrant organic sector. May they inspire many more across Europe to join in this movement, advancing rural livelihoods, climate action, biodiversity, and consumer confidence in organic agriculture." 💬 Eduardo Cuoco, Director of IFOAM Organics Europe, on Commissioner Christophe Hansen’s opening: "IFOAM Organics Europe takes note of Commissioner Hansen’s announcement of a targeted revision of the EU organic regulation and welcomes the European Commission’s commitment to continue developing organic production, market and research through a new EU Organic Action Plan. We stand ready to work with the Commission, the Parliament and the Council to ensure that this targeted revision of the organic regulation will focus on fixing legal issues and ensuring the regulation is coherent and implementable for the thousands of organic farmers and operators in the food production who already deliver for sustainability."
