"<< Objectives >>This project proposal aims to reinforce the capacity of organisations striving to conserve and use seed diversity locally, whether as small-scale farmers, seed savers associations, researchers or engaged citizens to understand and monitor the public policies that impact these seeds, which are a heavily regulated resource. SEEDING EUROPE is designed to raise their involvement in European policy-making, where they could advocate for an enabling legislative environment for their concrete activities<< Implementation >>We will carry out a comprehensive virtual training program coined “Seed Policy Labs” on European law and Communication (total of 8 webinars with language interpretation), organise a physical workshop in Brussels, develop and publish a didactic ""Guide to European Seed Policy"" (translated into different languages), hold several dissemination and multiplication events, including mentoring sessions to transform the theoretical knowledge gained into concrete policy and advocacy actions.<< Results >>We will develop long-lasting and accessible informational tools (training modules and didactic guide) to enhance the capacity of small-scale organisations and individuals dedicated to seed diversity to engage in European policy debates, and defend human rights to seeds. We will train more than 50 seed diversity actors from at least 9 EU States, and make some of them see how decisions are made in Brussels, for more participative engagement in policymaking."
