The 2008 SEED event held in India for 2008 Award Winner Himalayan Oregano Oil against MRSA recognised the partnership for its accomplishments in providing sustainable livelihoods.

The Award was presented at the German Embassy in Delhi by Sigmar Gabriel, the German Environment Minister. The event allowed the project to plan for its future; a very productive capacity building workshop resulted in progress on a Memorandum of Understanding and Support Plan while various networking opportunities provided the Indian entrepreneurs the chance to engage potential partners.
