It's #FairTradeMonth! While fair trade may sometimes be distilled down to a single label on a product, the movement is so much more: A vision for an economy based on solidarity.

Last week, CAL submitted new information to CBP documenting child trafficking and forced child labor in the Ivorian cocoa industry. Read more here: corpaccountabilitylab.org/calblog/2023/2…

Companies have known for decades that forced child labor is part of the industry. They know that children are trafficked into the country to work on cocoa farms, doing dangerous work like using machetes to cut cocoa pods from tall trees or carrying loads that weigh more than them

The companies also know that these children are not paid for their work. No company should be able to profit from forced child labor. We urge CBP to stop these imports at the US border by issuing a WRO. It is past time to stop companies from making a cheap buck off of children

New on the blog: So-called sustainability programs are failing cocoa farmers and their families, with two new ones helping companies like Nestlé US and Mondelēz Intl greenwash (and labor-wash) their products. We're not fooled! corpaccountabilitylab.org/calblog/2023/2…
