LEADING EXPLORATION PROJECTS

  • Relevance of a sector-wide governing body,
  • Emergence of a systemic Specialty Cacao common language,
  • Importance of linking this coordinating role to a certifying and educating posture.

IDENTIFYING THE LIMITS OF THE CURRENT FRAMEWORK

To open new pathways for evolution.
→ By examining existing initiatives, clarifying who has done what, and aligning fragmented efforts into a coherent framework.
