Working with Ecuador’s National Association of Manufacturers of Food and Beverage (ANFAB), FAS Quito organized three back-to-back workshops in the cities of Guayaquil (September 28), Cuenca (September 29), and Quito (September 30). The biotech outreach campaign contributed to expanding dialogue; allowing participants to exchange information on genetically-engineered (GE) food labeling policies, experiences, and trends. It also highlighted the possibility of creating effective, noncommercially disruptive GE-derived food labeling policies.
