Developed by South Pole in partnership with WBCSD
To address the critical need for clear, consistent, and equitable approaches to farmer engagement in Scope 3 decarbonisation, South Pole partnered with the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD). Together, we created practical guidance based on 4 core principles for engaging producers in in-value chain actions. This guide is designed to equip your business with a clear, equitable roadmap for action.
This document supports agrifood companies to move beyond inconsistent practices and embed fairness at the heart of your supply chain decarbonisation efforts.
