Representatives of civil society, peasant and indigenous organizations, human rights defenders, academia, experts and experts from Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe will meet to promote new approaches and Alternative Development policies, such as gender and ethnic approaches, as well as to promote value chains and the insertion of legal and sustainable products into successful commercial channels.
