Koppert Foundation
Three areas of focus
The Koppert Foundation will focus on three areas:
Smallholder farmers
Farming is easier and more rewarding with the right skills. The Koppert Foundation provides knowledge of sustainable agriculture and contributes towards education and training programmes for farmers who have no or limited access to skills and knowledge of sustainable and profitable farming practices.
The Koppert Foundation contributes to projects that make sustainable farming inputs available and accessible in areas where that is not (yet) taken for granted.
Social responsibility together with Koppert employees
A social work environment is a more joyful work environment. Koppert Biological Systems values and develops not only the work skills of its employees, but also their personal involvement in society. The Koppert Foundation intends to ‘double’ the effect of these public-minded activities through finance, extra hands and support.
Innovation & Education
There are no old roads to new directions. The Koppert Foundation wants to stimulate innovation and education by facilitating those with bright ideas and stimulating the exchange of knowledge.
