"To help us identify and address child labor in our cocoa supply chain, we continued in 2020/21 to

implement child labor monitoring and remediation systems based on the industry practice as developed by the International Cocoa Initiative (ICI) . To undertake monitoring and remediation, we work on the ground in cocoa origin countries, visiting households and communities to identify children at risk of child labor."
