HAMBURG – The Aid by Trade Foundation (AbTF), which oversees the Cotton made in Africa (CmiA) initiative, has joined the newly formed Koskilna Compact alliance, a five year project aimed at supporting cotton farmers in building up resilient livelihoods.

Specifically, the alliance, an international multi-stakeholder coalition of non-governmental organisations, companies, and state actors, will work to promote the economic and social development of cotton-growing regions in Chad and surrounding regions.

African farmers that grow cotton in accordance with the CmiA standard will benefit from additional income from the sale of carbon credits.
