The Federation of International Hemp Organizations (FIHO) is the new voice of the global hemp industry. The need for hemp organizations, companies, and interested parties to come together was identified in 2019. A working group of 20 hemp associations established the fundamentals in 2020. The appointed interim Board has registered the organization, finalized its foundation documents. FIHO members elected Directors at its first annual meeting.

 

FIHO is advancing the global production, consumption and trade of industrial hemp. Its priorities include: Legitimacy and Trust; Working Together; Policy and Regulation; and, Sharing Information. These priorities will assist the global hemp industry to:

  1. Effectively lobby intergovernmental organizations (i.e. FAO, IMO/IPCC,OECD, WHO, and WB);
  2. Coordinate global research and standards; and,
  3. Educate regulators.

Working together through FIHO will avoid duplication of effort and close knowledge gaps.
