Description
The objective of the PESCO project was to develop the service platform PESCO that allows service customers in the global north ( i.e. the gebana consumer networks) to exchange different kinds of services, e.g. products, know-how, information, loans, or even whole development projects, with service-customers in the global south, i.e. farmers in developing countries. The main service developed in the project based on the PESCO service platform is the so-called Acess-To-Market service where farmers in the global south can meet and develop a consumer network in the global north for their bio-farming products.
