This training manual is developed for national authorities and seed experts across the EU to strengthen their capacities and support transparent, harmonised implementation of the EU organic regulation.
Within its “push–pull–enable” approach, the LiveSeeding project aims to improve the availability and adequacy of organic seeds of cultivars tailored to organic farming systems. National authorities and organic seed stakeholders play a key role in reducing the use of non-organic seeds under derogation and in improving the functioning of national organic seed databases.
The training-of-trainers materials are structured into four modules (Modules 19–22). Each module is built around a common training outline that defines the scope, learning objectives and audience, instructional methods, formats, materials and assessment. The materials include step-by-step guides, presentations, videos, FAQs and interactive activities that can be adapted to national contexts.
This training module is self-paced. More info.
Target groups
National authorities, administrators of national organic seed databases, suppliers of organic and in-conversion seed, small-scale farmers, seed networks and advocacy groups working on seed policy.
