The OT4D project aims to accelerate the uptake of organic farming in Albania, Serbia, and Ukraine by engaging in Organic 3.0, a vision to mainstream and position organic systems as part of the solution to solving the challenges faced by our planet and species. The programme is implemented by IFOAM - Organics International, HELVETAS Swiss Intercooperation, and FiBL.
The overall goal of the programme is to increase value-added trade from the organic and dairy sectors, both domestic and export markets, by pursuing two objectives:
- Strengthening product quality and safety in the organic and dairy sectors
- Increasing trade capacity in the domestic and export markets with consumer products from the organic and dairy sectors
The programme is implemented by the Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FiBL, Switzerland) in partnership with SAFOSO AG (Switzerland). Both programmes are financed by the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO).
