5th European Fair Milk Conference in France
Invitation to the conference on 14 June 2018 in Villeneuve-d'Ascq near Lille, France
FaireFrance and the European Milk Board look forward to welcoming you to the 5th European Fair Milk Conference, which will take place on 14 June 2018 in Villeneuve-d'Ascq (near Lille) in France.
With the "Fair Milk" brand, milk producers have taken responsibility and their future into their own hands. By buying "Fair Milk", milk producers receive a cost-covering price. The "Fair Milk" initiative now exists in seven European countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg and Switzerland).
At the conference you will have the opportunity to get to know the different projects and the wide range of products as well as to discuss with "Fair Milk" producers.
The highlight of the conference will be the “Golden Faironika” award ceremony. The award is presented to politicians, farmers and civil society stakeholders to recognise outstanding efforts for a sustainable milk production.
For organisational reasons, we kindly ask you to confirm your attendance by sending an e-mail to office@europeanmilkboard.org or logistique@fairefrance.fr.
Conference languages are German and French.
We look forward to welcoming you at the conference and to presenting these exciting projects.
Please find here the programme and a registration form for the conference.
