http://www.fao.org/partnerships/partners-home/civil-society/details-news/en/c/174582/ The FAO Partnerships and Advocacy Branch is launching a series of CSO dialogues on key issues of concern to FAO. The dialogues provide a forum for civil society perspectives to be heard and discussed with FAO staff. The first session titled Plant Genetic Resources: perspectives from the International Planning Committee for Food Sovereignty (IPC) was held on April 16th. The IPC presented its working group on seeds and agrobiodiversity. IPC is an international network that brings together several global and regional organizations representing small scale food producers, fisherfolks, agricultural workers and indigenous peoples. It plays an active role in the global debates on food security and governance and has been engaging at FAO's policy forums since 1996. © FAO: http://www.fao.org
