Scaling Quinoa as Bhutan’s Special Agricultural Product (non-technical)

In 2021, Bhutan designated quinoa as its "One Country One Product" (OCOP), valuing its high nutrition, farmer income potential, export suitability, and climate resilience for mitigating agricultural impacts.

Supported by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), Bartsham Gewog's quinoa is becoming a Geographical Indication and Environmental Sustainability (GIES) product. This certifies its unique origin, traditional farming, and sustainable practices, boosting its value and access to premium markets.

Webinar Building Safer and Healthier Workplaces through Human Rights Due Diligence

Bananas are the world’s most exported and consumed fresh fruit. Ensuring a just and resilient supply chain increasingly relies on Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD), especially as new EU regulations like the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) and Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) mandate compliance across the banana sector.

A webinar, organized by Victor Prada and Valeria Villacorta, examines how integrating Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) into HRDD strengthens business performance, enhances worker well-being, and fosters resilient, equitable supply chains. This human rights-based, gender-sensitive approach improves operational efficiency, reduces costs, and boosts worker productivity and loyalty.
