The Coffee Dinner & Coffee Summit, held by the Brazilian Exporters Coffee Council (Cecaf\u00e9), reaches its 8th edition in 2019 with a record number of sponsors. Recognized as one of the main events in the global coffee agribusiness, this year\u2019s edition counts on the support of INTL FCStone, Pinhalense, Federa\u00e7\u00e3o dos Cafeicultores do Cerrado Mineiro, Cooxup\u00e9 and Olam Coffee.<\/p>\n
The 8th \u201cCoffee Dinner & Coffee Summit\u201d will take place on May 28-29, in S\u00e3o Paulo (SP). This year\u2019s topic is \u201cBrazilian Coffees: Quality with Sustainability\u201d. This is how the exporting business shows the importance of its sustainability agenda throughout the event.<\/p>\n
On the first day, the Coffee Dinner will be held in Sala S\u00e3o Paulo, at Esta\u00e7\u00e3o da Luz, as of 7p.m. This is a renowned gala dinner, when Cecaf\u00e9 pays tribute to bodies and leaderships that contribute to the strengthening of Brazilian coffee growing.<\/p>\n
Such efforts in pursuit of the social, environmental, and economic development of the coffee agribusiness take gender equality into consideration and the importance of Brazilian women for the industry. In this context, Cecaf\u00e9 will pay tribute to the \u201cCoffee Women\u201d, a category that encompasses examples of female leadership in Exports, Industry, Production, Research and Special Coffees.<\/p>\n
Since 2006, Cecaf\u00e9 has been spreading knowledge to producers in several country regions, also offering women digital inclusion opportunities and access to good farming practices, news on weather and prices, and information for them to manage their properties well, aiming to reduce the barriers these women face to lead and manage rural properties.<\/p>\n
Until the end of 2019, the Informed Producer Program will have trained more than 6K rural producers. In 2017, Cecaf\u00e9 launched the Informed Producer Portal for the program planning and management, having enrolled approximately 3.5K producers online. With the program\u2019s efforts towards gender equity in recent years, women have shown significant growth and already account for almost 30% of participants in the Program.<\/p>\n
The second part of the \u201cCoffee Dinner & Coffee Summit\u201d will take place on May 29th. The Coffee Summit will bring three discussion panels to Hotel Renaissance S\u00e3o Paulo. They will approach themes like macroeconomic prospects, consumer trends, routes to Asia and, of course, Brazilian coffee growing sustainability.<\/p>\n
The Executive Director of the Global Coffee Platform will speak in the Sustainability Panel, approaching its Member Initiatives. Brazil takes a leading role in some of these initiatives, particularly in the Correct and Safe Use of Agrochemicals, with the support of the roasting and agrochemical industries and research and rural extension agencies.<\/p>\n
The session will also discuss new training actions for rural producers and initiatives for women inclusion in rural properties management.<\/p>\n
The Sustainability panel will also have two other topics, encompassing Neumann Foundation and Embrapa Territorial, focusing on family succession, managing small properties, and environmental conservation in rural properties.<\/p>\n
