TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE WORLD COCOA ECONOMY

The Roundtable for a Sustainable Cocoa Economy (RSCE) is an initiative for dialogue and sustainability amongst all stakeholders in the cocoa economy: cocoa farmers and cooperatives, traders, exporters, processors, chocolate manufacturers, wholesalers, governmental and non-governmental organizations, financial institutions as well as donor agencies.

The RSCE website is a platform for the exchange of best known practices, discussion fora on cocoa topics ranging from crop pests, over value chain management to certification schemes. If you work with cocoa we would like to encourage you to get involved by sharing your knowledge and suggestions. Please contribute by posting your comments and sharing documents in the relevant topic sections.
