Farmer education
It is integral to educate the next generation of cocoa farmers and Barry Callebaut has developed a curriculum to do so. Special educational opportunities are targeted at women and girls in the cocoa farming communities.
Community-centered education activities will aim to develop the next generation of young cocoa farmers, including tailored activities for women and youth. A curriculum to promote cocoa farming education and business skills training will be promoted. Focus areas for training activities will also include functional literacy, health and safety practices, and child labor sensitization.
