Consumer Boycott
Is this company currently the subject of a popular consumer boycott? If not, they do not need an answer under this metric. If so, please explain.
About the data
Boycotts are most effective at enacting change when they are targeted and specific. This Metric aims to capture a relatively-small handful of companies, each of which are currently (for the year given) subject to a widespread consumer-level boycott for reasons related to their specific practices and impact.
Methodology
Data for this Metric may be sourced from various different places, provided it is sufficiently clear that the company in question is subject to a widespread, targeted, consumer-level boycott. For example, the Palestinian-led Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement provides a small, highly-targeted list of boycott targets which millions of consumers regularly engage with.
