10 Mar 2021 --- This year’s virtual Food Matters Live event kicked off with a spotlight on digitalization’s benefits for global food systems. In a live webinar, Marten van Gils, tech director of Fairfood International, details how the Dutch NGO’s Trace platform helps deliver end-to-end traceability with blockchain.“The food systems we eat from are pretty far from fair and we have a long way to go to reach the standards,” he remarks.“As a Dutch NGO that doesn’t have boots on the ground in Africa, Asia or South America, we work with technological innovations,” he details. “We make things and put them in the hands of farmers and people on the ground.”
