SeedsGROW Progress Report: Harvesting global food security and justice in the face of climate change (PROGRESS REPORT 1 April 2016 - 31 March 2017)

(PROGRESS REPORT 1 April 2016 - 31 March 2017) SeedsGROW is tackling the issues of unequal and unsustainable global seeds and food systems. It will also demonstrate how to make changes, and identify how effective methods can be replicated and sustained. Oxfam and its partners are proud of the programme's considerable achievements over its first year, which include: developing and testing baseline and farmer field school tools with smallholder farmers; allowing farmers to meet high-level global stakeholders including the World Bank; and influencing several national and global policy-making processes, including on EU biofuels and the FAO's Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture seed policy guideline.
