The Global GMO Free Coalition, with over 60 partner organizations, is the first globally coordinated network to take on the genetically modified food and crop industry head on in both the media and in public and government advocacy areas. The aim of the coalition is to cut through biotech industry propaganda and to provide independent information that leads to responsible actions from food regulatory bodies in countries worldwide.

The Global GMO Free Coalition will provide journalists and governments worldwide with a serious and well-respected source of independent information. The coalition will also coordinate expert speakers to attend public and private events wherever they are held around the globe. These speakers will present serious sustainable alternatives to GMOs.
