OACC Advisory Board
OACC is guided by an Advisory Board representing stakeholder groups from across Canada. OACC Board members deliberate and make recommendations about policy, strategic directions and sustaining OACC.Ìý We are indebted to past and current Board members who selflessly contribute time and help us to pursue our vision.
Groups represented on the Board include:
- organic farmers
- transitional farmers
- food distributors and retailers
- university researchers
- organic extension specialists
- students
- Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada
- organic organizations.
The board is designed in such a way that it must include at least one member from Manitoba or Alberta, and each of British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Québec and the Atlantic provinces.
