English term or phrase: organic process
We are happy to report that the study has been prepared through an organic process led by the _____, who consulted international experts, officials and focal points to solicit their views and gather information on the development of the ___ in the region.

I am editing this text. It was likely written by a non-native English speaker. I am just wondering how a study can be prepared "organically"

organizational process


Explanation:
I suspect that this person might be influenced by the meaning of the word "orgânico" in Portuguese and maybe other such languages. In Brazil we have "organic laws" and other organic things. It carries the meaning of "organizational", i.e. that which sets out the working rules of a system. This meaning would seem to fit well in the context above.

agree  Alexandra Taggart: Strangely, it was my first thought. There is nothing unusual,if you examine "organ"; moreover, say, "organic process of decomposition" appears to have much deeper meaning, than simply 'series of biochemical reactions'.
