Social-Labour Coordinator
Europe
Negotiable
Full-Time
30 June
Better Cotton Initiative
Description
To respond to the impacts of cotton cultivation the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) has been established. BCI aims to promote measurable improvements in the key environmental and social impacts of cotton cultivation worldwide to make it more sustainable (economically, environmentally, and socially).
'Better Cotton' is being defined through a collaborative multi-stakeholder approach that leverages the commitment of global buyers of cotton and/or cotton products to demand large and increasing amounts of 'Better Cotton'. Leading participants in the BCI Steering Committee (SC) are adidas, Gap Inc., H&M, ICCO, International Federation of Agricultural Producers, IKEA, Organic Exchange, Pesticide Action Network UK, and WWF.
The Social-Labour Coordinator plays a pivotal role in developing the approach BCI will take to enabling farmers and their communities to produce Better Cotton and how labour standards can be applied to a range of different farming contexts (from smallholders to large plantations).
