This session is part of the Swiss Coffee Festival 2026. Our “Amuse Bouche” talks and short workshops offer a taste of the many sides of coffee: discover new ideas, ask questions and take practical insights back to your daily coffee routine. Please note: Festival admission (CHF 15) is not included in your session ticket. You need a separate festival ticket. WHAT COULD A SUSTAINABLE COFFEE VALUE CHAIN LOOK LIKE? In this interactive, lecture-based introduction to the SCA Coffee Sustainability Program, explore some of the industry’s most pressing challenges: the impacts of climate change on coffee production, adaptation and mitigation strategies such as biodynamic farming, and the economics of coffee. A hands-on activity examines how prices, production costs and profitability affect producers. You are invited to question, discuss and consider how different actors across the coffee value chain can contribute to a more sustainable future. WHO IS IT FOR? Coffee professionals, enthusiasts and anyone curious about sustainability. YOUR TRAINER Emma Griffin Warren is a coffee roaster at Drip Roasters in Bern and an AST for the Coffee Sustainability Program. Her background includes research on the coffee value chain and farmer profitability, and a CAS in Coffee Excellence from ZHAW. She is passionate about making sustainability more accessible and believes that a more sustainable industry requires collaboration, fairer sharing of value and risk, and collective responsibility.
