From the beginning of year 2013 NGO Mondo is implementing a three-year-long European campaing, which aims to raise awareness among the customers on the conditions of cocoa production and collect signatures for the petition, which demands European chocolate companies to ensure a fair payment to cocoa farmers.
There are 4 partner organizations from Germany, Austria, Czech Republic and Estonia participating in the project, and the campaign is carried out in the total of 16 European countries. The aim of the project is to receive 100,000 signatures for the petition and mobilize 300,000 people to become active towards more justice in global cocoa industry. NGO Mondo is coordinating the campaign via associate organizations also in Latvia, Lithuania and Finland.
The project is funded by European Commission.
