India Roundtable

Overview

Our roundtable in India will take place from 5 to 10 November 2023. It provides an opportunity for a high-level policy engagement to convene stakeholders pertaining to India to strengthen ETP’s network and promote an understanding of ETP’s role in India.

The aim of the roundtable is to promote responsible business practices, mainstream social protection, and mitigate the risk of gender-based violence in the tea industry in Assam.

Attendees will include Indian tea associations, producer companies, estate managers, community development forum managers, civil society organisations, government agencies, and ETP member companies.  

The Roundtable in India will be followed by an invitation-only meeting of the Global Tea Coalition. 

Agenda

Throughout the roundtable we encourage honest, open debate and discussion. We focus on getting to the core of the issues and getting your questions answered.

In the various breakout sessions, we will concentrate on very specific issues to determine clear takeaways for your organisations.

ETP will book accomodation and transportation to and from field visits in Guwahati and Tezpur. Members will pay for accomodation upon checkout in Guwahati and Tezpur. Members are responsible for booking all flights and their accomodation in Kolkata.
