Continuing with our regional events in Latin America, our second 4C Regional Stakeholder Conference of the year took place in Bogota, Colombia. This event focused on the “New requirements for coffee exports and the latest advances in sustainability certification” in the Colombian and global context. The multifaceted agenda included renowned speakers from renowned organizations such as the International Coffee Organization, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, the EU Delegation in Colombia and the National Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia, among others. Topics of growing interest were discussed, such as the prospects for EU regulations on deforestation-free products and human rights due diligence, environmental protection, smallholder livelihoods and certification solutions.
