Why become a VLOG member?

VLOG represents the interests of the GMO-free producing and retail sector. With a VLOG membership, you can have a say in the fate of the association and work together with other sector stakeholders to represent your interests to politicians and other economic actors.

Only as a VLOG member you can ...

•    … participate in the VLOG General Assembly. It is the highest decision-making body in the association. Every full member has one vote. In addition, all important developments of the association are presented and discussed here. By exercising your voting right and taking part in the opinion-making processes, you can actively influence the fate of VLOG.

•    … participate in important votes and discussions, which are held at the General Assembly, for example:
          - Election of the Board members (every three years)
          - Discharge of the Board for the past financial year
          - Discussion of the budget plans
          - Discussion of the technical and political orientation of the association
          - Changes to the "Ohne Gentechnik" Production and Certification Standard

•    … run for one of the five Board positions.

•    … participate in and shape VLOG working groups.

•    … read the member edition of our newsletter with exclusive information.

•    … attend VLOG professional events at reduced fees.

 

The political weight of VLOG also depends on the number and importance of its members. With you as a member, we have a better chance of achieving our common goals and ultimately asserting your interests vis-à-vis politicians and other parts of the economy.

We ensure that the interests of the GMO-free producing industry and retail sector in Germany are well represented. Through our membership in the European Non-GMO Industry Association (ENGA), we also ensure our representation in Brussels and influence on EU authorities and politics. This is particularly important when it comes to the topic of genetic engineering, as many decisions are made at EU level.

In addition, VLOG provides a platform for professional exchange around "Ohne Gentechnik" production and labelling. Our membership fees are fairly structured and at an affordable level.

Are you part of the "Ohne Gentechnik" value chain? Then take the opportunity to take control of your economic destiny through a VLOG membership!

Have we awakened your interest? We look forward to hear from you!
