Despite years of donor investments and private industry programs, the cocoa sector is still battling socio-economic and environmental challenges. To improve this situation, collaboration between stakeholders is crucial. NewForesight therefore partnered with the World Cocoa Foundation to launch and implement CocoaAction. This is a voluntary industry-wide strategy that aligns the world’s leading cocoa and chocolate companies Barry Callebaut, Blommer, Cargill, Ferrero, The Hershey Company, Mars, Mondelēz International, Nestlé, and Olam with origin governments and key stakeholders on regional priority issues in cocoa sustainability.
The World Cocoa Foundation (WCF) is an international organization that is actively committed to encourage sustainability and rejuvenate the cocoa sector. Launched in 2014, CocoaAction was established to align the previously fragmented interventions of the nine leading cocoa and chocolate companies, origin governments and supply chain organizations. NewForesight was commissioned to align priority issues, coordinate interventions and ensure an accountable partnership and governance structure. The WCF is the convener for CocoaAction, and it facilitates implementation and generates new insights to improve the livelihoods of 300,000 farmers and 1,200 communities in West Africa.
Since its launch in 2014, NewForesight has supported the WCF in strengthening the common agenda and action road-map of CocoaAction by coordinating the interventions and measuring overall progress:
