New version will include indicators that strengthen biodiversity, climate change resilience, and cooperation between cotton companies and farmers
The Aid by Trade Foundation (AbTF) has opened a public consultation for its Cotton made in Africa standard as it looks to reshape the future profile of the sustainable cotton standard.
The latest update to the standard, version 5.0, focuses on increasing Cotton made in Africa’s effectiveness and adapting its criteria and indicators to external factors, which currently include biodiversity loss and a growing set of reporting requirements for companies.
