John Matthew, mede-oprichter en directeur van de Keystone Foundation en Last Forest Enterprises Ltd, India, is gekozen tot lid van het bestuur van IFOAM (International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements). Both ENDS werkt nauw samen met Mathews, die zich al jaren inzet om de positie en van kleinschalige producenten te verbeteren, ook die van producenten in zeer afgelegen inheemse gemeenschappen.

 

Both ENDS believes Mathews' appointment will offer an opportunity to incorporate innovative thinking a real time practice to the IFOAM community. It will allow Mathew to contribute first hand experience on small holder producers capacity development, genuine sustainable production & harvesting and new modes of - home-grown - quality control systems, such as the Group Guarantee Schemes.

 

What is more, Last Forest Enterprises Ltd and the larger network it is part of gives a strong impetus to entice domestic markets towards engaging in a sustainable, pro-poor purchasing lifestyle.
