The AgriFood Collective at the Geneva Graduate Institute invites you to a powerful panel discussion exploring the export of hazardous pesticides from Switzerland to the Global South, with a focus on a high-profile case involving the agrochemical giant Syngenta. Centered on the 2017 poisoning of Indian agricultural workers linked to a pesticide banned in Switzerland and the EU, the event highlights ongoing legal efforts and democratic tools used to hold corporations accountable. Experts and advocates will unpack the case’s legal developments, corporate responsibility, and the broader fight against double standards in pesticide regulation—followed by a Q&A and a convivial networking apéro.
