Q: What other programming does FCCI offer?
A: FCCI is a scholar-led nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing information asymmetry in the cacao and chocolate industry. We are specifically focused on tending to the information needs and objectives of cacao producers and those who support them worldwide. FCCI works on research and education from the perspective of the social sciences and humanities in service of a more equitable cacao-chocolate supply chain. To keep up with our activities and offerings, subscribe to our newsletter or follow us via social media at Facebook, Instagram, or Linkedin.
