Thank you for also expressing your concern about the ethical
sourcing ofour cocoa beans.
Cadbury shares your concerns. We have a long and honourable
tradition ofworking with cocoa producers to improve cocoa
cultivation and marketing,and strong human rights and ethical
trading principles.
Recently we announced the establishment of the Cadbury Cocoa
Partnership tosecure the economic, social and environmental
sustainability of around amillion cocoa farmers and their
communities in Ghana, India, Indonesia andthe Caribbean. We are
committing 44 million (close to AU$100 million) over
ten years to support farmers and their communities to help
create asustainable cocoa industry, and improve labour
conditions.
The Cadbury Cocoa Partnership will focus on1. Improving cocoa
farmer incomes by helping farmers increase theiryields and produce
top quality beans.2. Introducing new sources of rural income
through microfinance and business support to kick-start new rural
businesses and introduceadditional income streams such as growing
other crops.3. Investing in community led development to improve
life in cocoacommunities, eg supporting education through schools
and libraries,supporting the environment through biodiversity
projects, and buildingwells for clean, safe water.
4. Working in partnership: developing pioneering model which
will be ledfrom the grassroots. Farmers, governments, NGOs and
international agencieswill work together to decide how the funding
is spent and work with localorganisations to turn plans into
action.
In addition to the partnership, Cadbury will continue to support
the cocoaindustry in addressing the causes of forced child labour.
We recognisethat children working on family farms is part of the
family tradition andnormal activity in some cultures, particularly
at harvest time. However,enforced or unsafe labour is
unacceptable.
