ANTS confirmed for Arche Noah online webinar on Seeds Patents, 19 December 2024

Posted on by

We are very happy to announce that we’ve been confirmed for another webinar with Arche Noah about Seeds Patents, happening on December 19th 2024. Duration of the webinar will be 2 hours.

We’ll be providing Simultaneous Interpretation from and into FR, EN and DE.

The event is organized by Arche Noah, an organization based in Austria working on cultivated biodiversity and the topic to be discussed will be the Impact of Seeds Patents on Farmers. It is not a public webinar, but has the target group of people working in farmers’ movements and NGOs working on patents/GMOs/agriculture policy in Europe.

” Patents on plants and seeds have always been controversial, linked to the advent of biotechnology and its increased use in agriculture. In contrast to plant breeders’ rights, plant patents cannot be confined to a single variety as a rule of thumb, and thus cover multiple varieties. 

….

The webinar will start by taking stock of existing patents in agriculture, examining what types of patents are granted (“patentability”) and the prerogatives that are attached to them (“scope of protection”). “

Hi! Welcome to the ANTS website !

My name is axel and I’m the Project Manager of ANTS.

I have been working in the field of Simultaneous Interpretation for Social Movements since 2009, when I co-founded with other 3 people the pioneer project COATI (based in Barcelona, Cataluña, Spain).

Putting together the experience of 14 years participating in the events of different social movements, ANTS project started around summer 2023, when I moved back to my birth city Turin, North-West of Italy, officially registering ANTS in Italy at around march 2024.

Despite more than a decade working in the field, the ANTS project is relatively young, so as you can understand the website is still under construction. I will fill it with information and posts about the events we participate and the work we do in the time to come !

Please do not hesitate to write us an e-mail for information on the project!

You can also request a quote for your event, in-person or online

We can read emails in English, French, Spanish, Catalan, Italian and German while we’re able to answer in English, Spanish and Italian.

We will try to answer you promptly !

Have a good navigation in the ANTS world 😉 !
