Guardian Vital: Certification Hub Advancing Ethical Vineyard Practices

Guardian Vital will serve as a certification and platform that engages workers, employers and consumers, aligning worker wellbeing with business value. Establishing enforceable standards for fair pay, gender equity, safety, health protections, and ethical farming. The project develops a verification component and market infrastructure that supports participating wine producers with tools to meet standards. We aim to implement mechanisms that enable ethical farming and labor practices to be measured and rewarded within the wine industry.
