Project Communication

The Project Communication group provides communication and dissemination services for numerous projects. Among other things, we create and maintain project websites (e. g. DiverIMPACTS) including newsletters, coordinate publications for various target groups and archive project results. These include, for example, practice abstracts for farmers and policy briefs for decision-makers. We also support the organisation of conferences and manage the social media of projects.

We also maintain the institute's website fibl.org, including the FiBL Shop and FiBL project database, and are responsible for the technical support of all websites belonging to FiBL Switzerland (around 50 in total). The Project Communication group is also responsible for further developing the multilingual online platform Organic Farm Knowledge with practical information for organic farmers throughout Europe and the maintenance of FiBL entries in the publication archive Organic Eprints. The group is also responsible for various internal FiBL services. In addition, the group coordinates the collection of data on organic agriculture worldwide. The data is published in the yearbook "The World of Organic Agriculture" and presented each year at the Biofach trade fair.

We work closely with FiBL corporate communications (e. g. activity report and social media), with the Advisory Tools group (e.g. Bioaktuell.ch website, Bioaktuell magazine or FiBL Focus podcast) and with the Graphics group.
