Biovision – Foundation for Ecological Development
A world with enough healthy food for everyone, produced by healthy people in a healthy environment: this has been our commitment at Biovision for more than 25 years in Africa, in Switzerland and internationally.
About our work
Through concrete applications in agriculture, science and politics, we prove that people can be fed well and healthily without endangering natural resources. We show how the food system – from production to consumption – can be made sustainable. In doing so, we develop, test and disseminate solutions to overcome hunger, poverty, consequences of climate change and biodiversity loss. Approximately 50 employees in Zurich and Geneva, supported by colleagues from 23 partner organizations in sub-Saharan Africa, make up Biovision.
Where we work
In Switzerland we provide useful tips and information about sustainable consumption, and we are active in the movement for a sustainable food system.
In sub-Saharan Africa we disseminate knowledge and practical skills in organic agriculture to farmers, extension workers and authorities.
Internationally we build new alliances with governments, organizations and business to achieve better ecological and social framework conditions.
How we work
Our core competence lies in imparting knowledge about organic agriculture and responsible consumption, plus in strengthening the capacity for action. We build networks and form strong alliances to realize our vision. We inspire and motivate people to reconsider their ways and act sustainably. Our approaches are based on science and tested practically. We maintain close cooperation with competent, locally entrenched partner organizations. We lead by example and act diligently and transparently.
