Some 50 key representatives from the Kenyan public and private sector gathered to give comments and guidance on the development of the Kenyan Organic Agriculture Policy. Representatives from six other African countries joined to facilitate south-south cooperation in organic agriculture policy development.
The national consultation was organized by the Kenyan Ministry of Agriculture and the Kenyan Organic Agriculture Movement, with the support of the UNEP-UNCTAD Capacity Building Task Force on Trade Environment and Development.
Some of the papers presented at the conference are available at the conference website, including a report about organic farming in Kenya and in Uganda.
