PART III, LINE 4AInternational / Trade and Global Governance Trade: In 2015 IATP continued its work on the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) and the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) and their potential impacts on agriculture and food systems in the U.S. and abroad. We produced analysis of the impacts of TTIP and TPP on food systems and conducted extensive outreach to the media, decision makers and activists working on those issues. We expanded our work with state legislators, publishing materials on the potential impacts of pending trade agreements on local legislation on food labeling and food safety, and spoke at meetings of state legislators held in Washington state and Vermont. We intensified our outreach to local food and farm groups during the debate around Trade Promotion Authority (Fast Track) through online outreach, webinars and participation in educational events. We also organized public events and strategy sessions on the World Trade Organization and agriculture in Geneva and Nairobi. Global Governance: IATP also engaged with the UN Committee on World Food Security, working with partners from developing countries to promote agroecology and insist on better rules on land grabs. IATPs Shiney Varghese contributed to the High Level Panel of Experts paper on water and food security to provide guidance on the intersections between those issues and how global and national institutions can better resolve those tensions. We also worked with the Food and Agriculture Organization to organize regional meetings on agroecology in Brazil, Senegal and Thailand and co-sponsored a major international conference on agroecology in Mexico with the Asociacin Nacional de Empresas Comercializadoras de Productores del Campo (ANEC).
PART III, LINE 4BClimate Change and Corporate Strategies In 2015, IATPs Climate initiative had several components, all rooted in sustainable land uses and economies that benefit farmers, rural communities and the environment, including the Rural Climate Network, Rural Climate Dialogues, International Climate Policy, the Working Landscapes Certificate program, the Minnesota Green Chemistry Forum. Rural Climate Network: The Rural Climate Network is a grouping of organizations that come together to advance practical mitigation and adaptation strategies given the current and anticipated effects of climate change across the nation. In 2015 the Rural Climate Network grew to 45 member organizations, working together to develop climate mitigation and adaptation strategies. Members of the network share social and technical approaches to climate change among agriculture, forestry, and other natural resource dependent communities. The network documents innovations, best practices, impacts, and other stories on the website www.ruralclimatenetwork.org. At the conclusion of a year-long process in 2015, members of the Rural Climate Network issued a set of Rural Climate Policy Priorities. IATP also tracked and reported on how the Obama Administrations proposed Clean Power Plan will impact rural communities, and opportunities for RCN members to engage with the development of the Clean Power Plan. IATP initiated and continues to play a leadership role in the RCN. Rural Climate Dialogues: IATP is also working at the direct community level on the Rural Climate Dialogues. Developed in partnership with the Jefferson Center, these Rural Climate Dialogues are intended to foster conversation in rural communities about what climate impacts are manifesting locally on-the-ground and how local citizens think their community should handle those impacts. IATPs first dialogue, in Morris, MN in 2014, was the 2015 winner of an Environmental Initiative award for community engagement. In 2015, IATP and the Jefferson Center completed the second Rural Climate Dialogue in Grand Rapids, Minnesota. The Dialogue first happened at the school level, where high school students received several lessons on the local impacts of climate change. This information was included at the community-wide Rural Climate Dialogue, where a group of Itasca County citizens gathered for three days to discuss community responses to changing weather and climate. Planning for the next Rural Climate Dialogue in Winona began in 2015, with several visits to the community to identify the most relevant local climate impacts. Information about the Dialogues is housed on the Rural Climate Network website at http://www.ruralclimatenetwork.org/content/rural-climate-dialogues. Global Climate Policy: IATP tracked the intersection of agriculture and community-level responses to climate change with the United Nations global climate negotiations. IATP attended the global climate talks in Paris, and reported on a number of agriculture and trade-related initiatives within the global climate agreement. This work included a monitoring and critique throughout 2015 of agribusiness marketing strategies in response to climate change helping to organize a sign-on letter with more than 350 organizations worldwide, opposing an agribusiness greenwashing strategy. IATP also reported on how the proposed Trans Pacific Partnership will impact national-level climate policy. And reported on how past trade agreements, like the North American Free Trade Agreement and rules at the World Trade Organization, undermine climate policy. Working Landscapes Certificate Program: In 2015, IATP continued its cooperation with Stonyfield and other responsible bioplastic users to ensure that their bioplastic use supported farmers in producing corn (the bioplastic feedstock) in more sustainable ways through our WLC program. It was another successful production year, with our 8 WLC farmers meeting or exceeding production expectations, all while growing corn in more responsible manner. Minnesota Green Chemistry Forum: IATP also continued to promote and expand the Minnesota Green Chemistry sector in 2015 through its co-leadership of the Minnesota Green Chemistry Forum. Our conference in January 2015 brought together Minnesota businesses, NGOs, policymakers and researchers to discuss and share the latest developments around Green Chemistry technology, supportive policies, and research. While the conference is the main outreach of the MGCF, we also held a number of smaller, more focused events in 2015 intended to expand our network and provide unique learning opportunities for MGCF members.
PART III, LINE 4CAgriculture and food In 2015, IATPs work on food and agriculture included work on agriculture policy, agroecology, farm to institution, the meat industry, and health issues such as fungicides, nanotech and synthetic biology, and antibiotic use in livestock production. Industrial Meat: In 2015, IATP focused its industrial meat work on mapping the landscape of actors, convening partners to explore joint strategies, influencing relevant UN organizations and exposing the links between upcoming trade agreements and the industrial meat complex. IATP completed its civil society mapping exercise of industrial livestock production challenges in Brazil, China, India and the U.S. Working with Heinrich Boell Foundation and Germanwatch, we included Europe as well. The mapping identified civil society organizations that are working directly or indirectly against the industrial livestock production model--for example challenging GMO production, addressing deforestation, exposing public health impacts of antibiotic resistance, etc. IATP also co-organized a meeting with key Brazilian civil society organizations on the state of play of the Brazilian meat industry and its global linkages. Brazilian participants included social movements, non-governmental organizations and academics. The meeting identified potential areas of synergy for further collaboration. Also in 2015, IATP continued to engage with the Food and Agriculture Organizations Committee on World Food Security (CFS), to help form a civil society working group on livestock; the groups mandate is to influence the 2016 High Level Panel of Experts report on sustainable agriculture, including the role of livestock. We continue to help coordinate that working group. We also held webinars on industrial livestock production and its relevance to the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) and the interests of the meat industry as well as problems with contract farming in the U.S., Brazil and India in the poultry sector. Working with the Animal Agriculture Reform Collaborative in the U.S. and a coalition of European groups, we continue to show how TTIP and TPP consolidate the power of the meat industry. Farm to Institution: In 2015, IATP continued our successful partnership with Community Action Partnership of Ramsey and Washington Counties (CAPRW) Head Start and the Hmong American Farmers Association (HAFA), coordinating the second year of our 'Farm to Head Start' pilot program, now serving fresh local foods and teaching children about their local food system at all Head Start centers in St. Paul. We have continued in our role as Farm to School community partner for St. Paul Public Schools, and have participated with them in the School Food FOCUS Upper Midwest Regional Learning Lab to build regional connections and support for expansion of Farm to School in their district. As part of this role, we coordinated a successful regional 'Midwest Menu' event during Farm to School Month, where districts across the Midwest served a menu of local, clean label chicken, local apples, and a local vegetable and grain of their choice on the same day to celebrate our regional pride and promote Farm to School in our states. On the state, regional and national levels, we participated in several leadership coalitions related to Farm to Institution, including the National Farm to Preschool Subcommittee, the School Food FOCUS Upper Midwest Regional Learning Lab, MN Farm to School Leadership Team, MN Childhood Nutrition and Wellness Advisory Group, MN Healthy Kids Coalition and MN Healthy Legacy Steering Committee. We also continued to coordinate the MN Farm to Childcare Coalition to advance this work in our state, and have co-led a group of 30 stakeholder groups working specifically on advocating for state level policy to support Farm to School/Childcare. To expand understanding of Farm to Institution, we presented at several national and regional conferences, including among others the National Head Start Parent Conference and National Head Start Policy Conference, the National Child and Adult Care Food Program Conference, the MN School Nutrition Association Conference, the MN Schoolyard Garden Conference, and the Duluth Food Access Conference. Food and Agriculture: Work in 2015 centered on policy research, analysis, outreach and organizing around 1) Fast Track Trade promotion Authority, 2) state-level 'right to farm' legislative preemption efforts, 3) season extension and 4) the adoption and implementation of a Good Food Purchasing Policy (GFPP) in the Twin Cities. In addition to publishing reports, outreach included action alerts, sign-on letters, webinars, presentations at multiple public events, and development of an organizational database of over 280 allied food and farm organizations. Agroecology: IATP continued in our role as a driver of food system innovation, specifically as a convener of different parts of the food system and nascent food movement (farm labor, restaurant workers, farmers, scientists, and urban citizen-consumers); as a synthesizer/translator of cutting edge research and case studies from around the world, to make them accessible to movement partners; and as a catalyst/Incubator by carrying out projects and using our experiences to help build important infrastructure, political will, documented experiences and evidence, and assessment of barriers to innovative and alternative systems. We participated in the Open Source Seed Initiative and the campaign to get the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the UN to embrace agroecology, in addition to writing several articles and presenting at numerous conferences. Nanotechnology and Synthetic Biology: In 2015, IATP continued to research, write and advocate about the risks inherent in new technological applications in agriculture, such as nanotechnology and synthetic biology. In 2015, writings and presentations included: - Comment to the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy concerning the revision of the 'Coordinated Framework for the Regulation of Biotechnology' - Food and Agricultural Nanotechnology: Rationales for Its Application and Exposure Science to Manage Its Risks - Algae: Raceway to the Future? - Oral Statement for the Environmental Protection Agency Workshop for Public Input on Considerations for Public Input of Genetically Engineered Algae - Comment on the White House Office of Science and Technology Policys 'Nanotechnology Inspired Grand Challenges for the Next Decade' - Challenges to regulatory science: quantifying human and environmental exposure to nanomaterials - No Small Task: Generating Robust Nanotechnology Data - Shareholder and Trade Union Action in Nanotechnology: Non-regulatory Initiatives - Suing EPA for failure to regulate nano-pesticides - Promise vs. the Realization of Nanotechnology in the 21st Century - Three agri-nanotechnology applications: prospects and problems, NGO summit on nanotechnology, Washington, DC, March 23, 2015. - Policy for Nanomaterials in Food and Food Packaging
PART III, LINE 4DCommunications IATP communicates about its issues using a variety of means: its extensive website, which includes online resource centers for IATPs reports (7 published in 2015), fact sheets (4 published in 2015) and other relevant publications, an online media center; and its Think Forward blog, with 100 blog posts in 2015. IATPs video resources (youtube.com/iatpvideo) were expanded to include recording of all our webinars and events as well as archival material that had not previously been available online. We issued fourteen press releases and commentaries to and for news outlets. In addition to meetings mentioned in program narratives, IATP hosted twelve webinars and four IATP Minnesota Globals (public events featuring speakers on local to global issues). We livestreamed the 2015 U.S. Food Sovereignty Prize event from Iowa. Finally, in 2015 IATP launched The Story of Drought, a web site as a multi-media platform using images, text, videos, and infographics designed to engage audience unfamiliar with how trade, food and agriculture policy effects climate change. Electronic newsletters published in 2015: - IATP News, describing organizational activities; - IATP International, focusing on IATPs international work and issues; - Tar Sand News, tracking news and developments in the world of extreme energy production; - Rural Climate Network News, connecting farmers and rural communities with tools, ideas and partners on climate change impacts and solutions; - Global Food Safety Monitor, tracking issues in food safety 2015 Reports, articles, factsheets and handbooks: - Rural Climate Policy Priorities - The TPP SPS chapter: not a 'model for the rest of the world' - A 21st Century Ambition for International Trade - States Leadership on Healthy Food and Farming at Risk under Proposed Trade Deals - Building Minnesotas Farm to Institution Markets - Trade policy removal of regulatory 'irritants' - Extending the Growing Season - Using Regionally Grown Grains and Pulses in School Meals - Deepening Food Democracy - States Leadership on Healthy Food and Farming at Risk Under Proposed Trade Deals - Minnesota Farm to Institution Markets 2015 Webinars: - Markets: The Producer Perspective - Building Farm to Institution Markets - Webinar: Rural Climate Dialogues Itasca County, Minnesota - Millions of dead birds: Industrial poultry in crisis - Webinar: Carbon Markets and Agriculture: A U.S. and International Perspective - Assessing carbon footprints on the farm Event - Assessing carbon footprints on the farm - Agricultural Fungicides and Public Health - TTIP and Animal Welfare
