The IDH Cocoa Program • Targets (2013): • 20% income increase and productivity increase amongst 50k producers; 64k tons certified cocoa; • Partners: • 2 largest chocolate companies (Mars ; Nestle), largest trader (Cargill), major retailers (Ahold, IKEA), major NGOs (Solidaridad, Oxfam, WWF) and UTZ Certified. • Focus: • Improve producer practices (Tech Assistance, tools & standards development) • Improve traceability (Chain of Custody, IT system, training) • Improve market access (alliances, awareness raising, business development) • Increase national/producer organization capacity • Budget: • 9.7 M euro (of which IDH funds 3.6 M)

  14. Natural Stone Improvement Program Programme goals for 2011 Program goals: • A European label forsustainableproducednaturalstone • Fourimporters are implementingsustainability criteria withtheirsuppliers in China and India • Five Dutch municipalities switch to purchasingsustainable naturalstone Countries: Belgium, China, India, the Netherlands Budget: 0,6 million

  16. A- Support the development of ASC B- Improvement programmes in 3 species C- Intra- and intersectoral learning IDH Aquaculture Program

  17. IDH Aquaculture Program • Program goals Aquaculture: • Succesfull market introduction ASC label • Certification 15% EU imports of tilapia, shrimps & pangasus • Support small producers & processors in Southeast Asia • Countries: Bangladesh, China, India, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam • Budget: tbd

  19. Aquaculture Stewardship Council “Creating Change on the Water” Co-founders

  20. Vision and mission • ASC’s vision is to transform aquaculturetowards environmental and social sustainability using efficient market mechanisms which create value accross the whole value chain. • ASC’s mission is to offer a credible consumer label that assures compliance with multi-stakeholder derived standards for environmentally and socially sustainable aquaculture and by increasing demand for and securing a supply of ASC certified products transform the market to a sustainable basis in an economically efficient way. • The ASC is expected to be in full operation by mid 2011.

  21. More than a standards holding body, it is a global transformation system for aquaculture: • Credible – standards are ISEAL compliant, multi stakeholder, open and transparent, science based performance metrics • Effective – minimizes the environmental and social footprint of commercial aquaculture by addressing key impacts • Adds value – connects the farm to the marketplace by promoting sustainable practices through a consumer eco-label

  22. 5 It will take up to 24 months to develop the independent ASC.

  23. Areas of focus Comms ASC Funding

  24. Governance Structure in discussion

  25. The ASC will offer farm level annual certification. The ASC will use accredited third-party Certification Bodies (CB) that are ISO 65 compliant. The ASC will initially offer certification for 12 aquaculture commodity species, which are: salmon, shrimp, pangasius, tilapia, freshwater trout, oysters, mussels, clams, scallops, abalone, cobia, and seriola. The ASC standards will focus on minimizing environmental and social impacts. The ASC will “partner” with accredited organizations that offer food safety standards and traceability. Thus offering “one-stop-shopping” for certification. Accreditation/certification

  26. 4 the process incorporates firewalls to maintain independence and integrity Aquaculture Dialogues = “standard creation process” Aquaculture Stewardship Council = “standard holding body” Certification Bodies = “3rd party ISO 65 accredited” Farm = “unit of certification”

  27. Aquaculture Stewardship Council Building on Existing Organisational Capacity Improvement Programme Partnerships already started Retail Outreach & Partnerships already started ASC • Building Capacity • Creating Market Demand Market analysis Traceability

  28. Aquaculture Stewardship Council Building on Existing Organisational Capacity Improvement Programme Partnerships already started Retail Outreach & Partnerships already started ASC • Building Capacity • Creating Market Demand Building Business Plan

  29. WWF has engaged with GlobalG.A.P. as an interim step to offer the Aquaculture Dialogue standards as environmental/social modules to “add-on” to current certification schemes. Thereby, making the standards available as they are finalized. • WWF is encouraging retailers to communicate with their suppliers to : • begin the GlobalGap certification process • begin gap analyses of current performance against Aquaculture Dialogues.

  30. Agenda • IDH • Short overview • Improvement programs: • Tea • Cocoa • Natural Stones • ASC and IDH Aquaculture programs • ASC Update • IDH Improvement programs

  31. Concrete support for improvements at farm level • IDH to support value chains initiatives that aim to improve production and tackle main social and environmental impacts at farmer level. • Focus on Tilapia, Pangasius and Shrimps: Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Bangladesh, India a.o.. • Goal: 15% of export market certified by 2015 (mainstream volumes), 30% in 2020 • Multi stakeholder consortia, with private sector in the lead. • IDH to cooperate with GTZ and other institutions, national and local gov, ngo’s.

  32. Producer support Farm level • Training and capacity building • Research and monitoring • Org and clustering small scale producers • Involvement of feed and input manufactures Meso • Dialogue local community, gvt and civil society • Training facilities: farmer field schools, lighthouse models, etc

  33. Producer support (cont) Macro (enabling environment) • National interpretations of standards • Acces to finance • Involve domestic markets • Auditors capacity building (structure) • National research programmes • Political and legal systems

  35. Overall Goals • Vietnam: 15.000 – 20.000 farmers – 300 processors - export to 120 countries. • Europe: 230.000 MT (35% of total) • Germany 45.000MT; Netherlands 30.000 MT (32% of Europe). • Goal: 75.000-100.000 MT certified in 2015. • Sector: • Taking joint responsibility: from farm to retail. • Social, environmental and economicsustainability to secure futureproduction in Vietnam as well as securing the sourcing to markets in Europe. • Foodsafety and traceability as acces to market • Support of government, civil society and research institutions. • Vietnam wishes to improve the sector. • The present pilot improvement programme > first 15.000 MT certified Pangasius (safe, and environmental and socialsustainable) • Several consortia needed in nearfuture (in different markets)

  36. Pilot program goals I • improve the social, environmental and economic sustainability of the value chain; • increase the sustainability of rural livelihoods; • ensure consistent supply of sustainable pond farmed pangasius products in the market; and • create a solid basis for the establishment of an internationally accepted certification scheme (Aquaculture Stewardship Council - ASC) that would utilize the strengths of existing social, environmental and food safety standards and practices.

  37. Pangasius pilot program II • Outcomes: • Model forupscaling • 15.000 MT to beGlobalGap and PAD/ASC cert • 7500 beneficiaries • Supporting research: • Cost benefit analysis • Gap analysis of supply chain partners • Reveiw of relevant laws etc. • Active engagement of Gvt • Certification of feed, hatchery and nurserysupplies • Programmes for processors, large farms and small holders

  38. New programs To be developed in 2010 • Shrimps • Tilapia
