XVI Congreso Mundial Biológico
![](http://infoandina.org/infoandina/sites/default/files/styles/w600/public/default_images/160x220_0.png?itok=gRAzSFEv)
Entre el 16 y el 20 de junio próximos se llevará a cabo el XVI Congreso Mundial Biológico (Organic World Congress) en la ciudad italiana de Módena. Este encuentro es organizado por la IFOAM (International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements) que reúne a 108 países de todo el mundo, MódenaBio2008 y la Asociación Italiana de Agricultura Biológica.
El Congreso estará basado en los principios de la agricultura orgánica del IFOAM: salud, equidad, ecología y precaución. Otros importantes puntos considerados sobre la base de estos principios son los valores regionales y el conocimiento indígena, la innovación y la cooperación entre consumidores y productores, organizaciones sociales, la empresa privada, los gobiernos, comunidades, países y regiones.
El COM intenta ofrecer plataformas y construir puentes entre diferentes culturas y regiones, tanto en el tiempo como en el espacio, con el apoyo de reconocidas personalidades que guiarán las sesiones, conferencias, talleres, seminarios, mesas redondas, entre muchos otros eventos que se realizarán durante estos días. Se discutirán diversos temas como la seguridad alimentaria orgánica, energía renovable, incluyendo producción de biocombustible en la agricultura orgánica, energía y comunidades rurales, mitigación y adaptación para el cambio climático y potencial de captura de carbón en la agricultura orgánica.
El evento contará con las presencia de líderes y científicos comprometidos con la materia, entre los cuales destacan el italiano Carlo Petrini fundador de "Slow Food", Tewolde Berhan Gabre Egziabher, ganador del "Right Livelihood Award"en 2006, la indú Vandana Shiva, una de las mayores representantes del movimiento "altermondista" y el presidente boliviano Evo Morales.
Pueden consultar el programa completo del encuentro en el detalle de la InfoNota.
