The FAO Responsible Fruits Team organized the workshop from May 15–16, 2024. The objectives of the workshop were to review the challenges and trends of tropical fruits, explore solutions for collective action, and present practical tools and guides for responsible business conduct and climate adaptation and mitigation. It also aimed to bring together various stakeholders in different tropical value chains, such as pineapple, avocado, and banana.
The two-day event was a great opportunity to learn more about tropical fruit value chains, share information about the research group, and meet stakeholders from different parts of the world.
