Categoría: Technical Support Organisation

We support companies with direct action to tackle environmental and social risks throughout supply chains.

We provide technical expertise and services for Responsible Production and Sourcing.  We work with governments, companies and collaborative organisations in order to address systemic issues beyond the supply chain, within a landscape or a sector, to deliver positive outcomes at scale.

We bring expertise in these environmental and social issues that drive our work, including protecting and restoring forests and natural ecosystems, conserving biodiversity, advancing gender equality and human rights. 

We use the HCSA tools and approaches by conducting HCV-HCSA assessments and training in Southeast Asia, W/C Africa and Latin America.
