"P6 Continuing our partnership with the World Cocoa Foundation and participating in key industry initiatives such as the
Cocoa & Forest Initiative, which directly inform how we address underlying issues such as poverty that contribute to

in West Africa to discuss opportunities to prevent and address risks associated with child and forced labor." "P7 Serving on the board of the International Cocoa Initiative (ICI), which drives the industry approach, opinions and public
statements, programs and best practices, and in-country organizational resource allocation towards eliminating child and

engage the Governments of Cote d’Ivoire and Ghana on topics like child and forced labor."
