IDH’s Approach to Deforestation
AT NATIONAL LEVELThe Cocoa & Forests Initiative (Ghana, Cote d’ Ivoire Colombia) and
Roadmap to Deforestation-Free Cocoa (Cameroon)
Public-Private-Civil Society Platforms in cocoa producing countries that define and support implementation of commitments to deforestation-free cocoa
AT LANDSCAPE LEVELLandscape programs that focus on sustainable production, forest
protection & restoration and community inclusion
Create areas where agricultural products are grown sustainably (Production), forests and natural resources are safeguarded (Protection), and communities thrive (Inclusion)
Pilot, at landscape level, the innovative solutions designed at a national level through the Cocoa & Forests Initiative and / Roadmap.
An active commitment of leading cocoa-producing governments and
chocolate and cocoa companies to end deforestation and forest
degradation in the cocoa supply chain.
Represents unprecedented commitments on forest protection and
restoration, sustainable cocoa production and farmer livelihoods.
Initiated in 2017 in Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana,
which jointly represent 60-70% of the world’s
annual supply of cocoa;
Expanded to Colombia in 2018, where cocoa was
identified as a priority for Colombian agricultural
growth, both for domestic consumption and
international export.
