[MPWG] WEBINAR: FairWild certification (Sept. 23, 4:30am ET or 11amET) - free registration

[De Angelis, Patricia]

What will you learn?
With wild sourced herb products increasingly in demand in the current global crisis, consumers are increasingly asking how to be sure that the products they use are benefiting people and planet, and brands are increasingly looking to use certified ingredients to demonstrate their ethical credentials to consumers. We will explore how to implement the FairWild Standard and certify wild harvested ingredients. With input from special guest presenters, we'll cover the social, environmental and fair trade aspects of the Standard - including fair prices and premiums for wild harvesters, establishing wild harvest management plans and monitoring systems, and negotiating equitable trading partnerships with buyers.

Special guest speakers include:

  *   Gus Le Breton from Zimbabwe based Baobab collection operation B'Ayoba (AM session)
  *   Elisa Aragon from Central American based Peru Balsam collection operation Nelixia (PM session)
  *   Bryony Morgan, Executive Officer of the FairWild Foundation (AM and PM sessions)

Join the FairWild Foundation and special guests on Wednesday 23 September to learn more about:

  *   Why brands and consumers care about wild
  *   What FairWild Foundation does
  *   How FairWild certification can benefit your business
  *   An exclusive look at what FairWild certification has meant to certified operations
