We’re pleased Oxfam has been raising awareness for these important issues. We appreciate they’re recognizing our ongoing work in advancing the rights of women in the cocoa supply chain and in other areas like climate change and land where our score has improved.

Our business depends on a steady, high-quality supply of crops like cocoa, wheat and many other commodities to create our delicious snacks. As demand for these supplies increases worldwide, so do the challenges facing farmers — from reducing the environmental impact of agricultural practices and dealing with more frequent extreme weather to the long-term impact of climate change and growing competition for land.

These challenges are complex and require coordinated action by governments, industry, and scientific and environmental experts.

You can read more about our work in this area in the sustainable agriculture section of our Call For Well-being Progress Report and our 2020 sustainability goals.
