TEIKEI NGO

Structure of the TEIKEI NGO

The next step for TEIKEI is to set up a Europe-wide NGO to take over the non-profit aspects of the network. This organisation will be a strong and independent representation of the partners and farmers to provide them with sustainable support and representation. The location of the NGO is still being finalised, but Switzerland or Norway is a very likely location.

The aim of the TEIKEI NGO is to create a platform on which the principles of solidarity agriculture and community supported agriculture (CSA) can not only be applied, but also further developed. It will enable farmers to gain direct access to resources, training and a strong network that will provide them with long-term financial and social security.

This NGO will work across Europe to promote networking between the various stakeholders, develop educational programmes and establish structures for sustainable agriculture in various European countries. An important focus is on supporting projects that promote resilient, ecological and socially just agriculture at regional and international level.

An essential part of the NGO will also be the provision of independent advice and legal support to local farmers and partners. In addition, it will play a key role in developing new markets and sustainable supply chains to support and realise TEIKEI's goals.
