Living Wage Lab | Aligning Actions on Farmer Income in the Cocoa Industry
5 Feb 2025 | 13:30-17:00 | Amsterdam
The Living Wage & Income Lab is back at the Amsterdam Cocoa Week. And this time, Fairfood, IDH, and the Living Income Community of Practice (LICOP) teamed up to tackle a key question: where must we move the needle to ensure existing actions and collaborations lead to living incomes in the cocoa industry?
Living incomes for farmers in the cocoa industry - aligning actions and strategies
Ahead of the Chocoa Conference, you can join us at the Beurs Van Berlage in Amsterdam to hear real-world examples of how regulations like the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) are reshaping company strategies, discuss joint solutions to enhance cocoa farmers’ resilience, and explore what’s needed to create an enabling environment for meaningful change.
Co-hosted by Fairfood, IDH, and the Living Income Community of Practice, this special edition of the Living Wage & Income Lab features insights from civil society, farmer organisations, industry leaders, and government representatives.
What to expect:
- Farm and Value Chain Strategies: Explore how procurement practices are evolving from ‘nice to have’ to necessities, as mandated by CSDDD. Learn about collaborative approaches to tackle systemic challenges like child labour and deforestation.
- Fostering an Enabling Environment: Discuss why record-high cocoa prices still fail to benefit farmers. Delve into pre-competitive collaborations that integrate climate resilience and adaptation into living income strategies.
