Climate-proof your supply chain
An online learning series presented by
the Global Coffee Platform and the Feed the Future Alliance for Resilient Coffee
Would you like to ensure that your coffee trading, roasting or retail business is doing all that it can to become climate resilient?
Climate has a vital influence on coffee. Climate hazards are currently threatening coffee –and are likely to increase in the future. But what are these threats and what can be done?
This premier online Learning Series delivered by an array of industry, supply chain, and climate change experts, will provide information and answers to questions relating to understanding and managing climate change in the coffee supply chain. At the same time the series is an action pathway for private sector investment in climate smart agriculture (CSA), from assessing supply chain risks to monitoring the results of implemented solutions at origin – for the benefit of the coffee farmer.
The Global Coffee Platform and the Alliance for Resilient Coffee have partnered to offer tools, resources, and a forum for questions and discussion to the coffee sector. Come and join this exceptional learning series to:
- Understand how climate change is currently affecting supply chains, and the prognosis for the future
- Plan, implement, and scale effective CSA initiatives, using tested tools and techniques
- Learn how to assess your supply chain risks at the farm, landscape and regional level, implement solutions, and monitor the impact of your actions
- Convey to others in your company the value of collective (or individual) investment in CSA
- Align your actions with other stakeholders at origin
