The International Cocoa Initiative (ICI) commissioned a research study to examine the impact of public and private investments in raising cocoa farmers’ productivity on the risk of child labour and on the labour market in Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire.

Our Annual Report 2015 contains our highlights of the year, messages from our Co-Presidents, our Executive Director, our National Coordinators, our year in numbers and many more informations.

Consolidating its own lessons and experiences from the last 12 years, and recognizing that the needs of the cocoa sector are changing (demanding an urgent acceleration and scale-up sustainability efforts) ICI is launching a refreshed and revised Strategy for 2015-2020 to ensure its continuing relevance and effectiveness in tackling child labour.

This report summarises and reviews the Final Report of the Survey Research on Child Labor in the West African Cocoa Sector 2013/14 conducted by the Payson Center for International Development at Tulane University and financed by the U.S. Department of Labor.

These educational films, produced by ICI, expand the range of awareness-raising materials on child labour in cocoa-growing communities. The educational films are short films consisting of eight (08) episodes, each lasting between 15 and 30 minutes, and are used to raise awareness among cocoa-growing communities and other target audiences. The films are available only in French. You may download the guidance document (in French) for additional information on how to use the films.
