Dear all, thank you for your feedback. We tried to improve the campaign pages to make the info clearer. Via the QR code (and the main picture on our start page <https://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/en> ) you now get directly to the site to send the email to the COM: https://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/en/campaign And we have another site with further info about the campaign: https://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/en/campaign-info Both sites can be found in our activities: https://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/en/activities If you have further ideas for improvement, please let me know!

Campaign online
by Johanna Eckhardt 12 Jan '24

12 Jan '24

Dear all, I hope you all enjoyed the holidays and had a great start into 2024! Looking forward to new adventures together! Our campaign is now online: English: https://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/en/campaign German: https://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/de/kampagne Sending the email to the COM needs a bit of commitment, but setting up a form would have been a lot of work. Apart from that, please let me know if there is anything we could improve. On Monday I will share on social media, etc. We plan for a newsletter later on. And we'll send the email to the COM as well from NPOS side. Kind regards, Johanna Mag. Johanna ECKHARDT Project Coordination Tel. +43 680 21 26 343 <mailto:johanna.eckhardt@no-patents-on-seeds.org> johanna.eckhardt(a)no-patents-on-seeds.org NO PATENTS ON SEEDS! <http://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/> www.no-patents-on-seeds.org <http://www.facebook.com/nopatentsonseeds> www.facebook.com/nopatentsonseeds <http://www.twitter.com/nopatentsonseed> www.twitter.com/nopatentsonseed

nearly final version of the new activity / appeal (de and en)
by Christoph Then 10 Jan '24

10 Jan '24

Dear all please see the revised draft for our new activity. As announced, we will mobilise for this activity via the new leaflets and stickers, distributed via organic breeders. They will be distributed from next week on. We have to make sure that the activity is online as soon as possible. We will ask the participants to use the paragraph written in italics to send an e-mail to the Commission. The longer text is just meant for explanation (we will also use it as open letter to inform the Commission, the Parliament and the Council). We will send the English version for edits and then go online. Please let us know if there are urgent comments. happy and successful year 2024 to all of us! Christoph
