NOMAD: An EU Project for Sustainable Agriculture Development

Synthetic fertilisers nowadays help grow enough food to feed about half of the world’s population – despite their well-known detrimental impact on the environment.

Value Change Initiative on LinkedIn: #NetZeroValueChains

Last week I had the opportunity to participate in a panel about Supplier #engagement toward achieving #SBTs at the Innovation Forum conference, together with Daniel Roe and Muhammad Umer Rehman. I have been reflecting on the takeouts of that discussion, as some organizations resonated with the ideas: - Brands are willing to learn and to work with suppliers and partners. To that end, they are testing approaches, and investing in a way that is aligned to their strategy and operations. - Suppliers,
