As part of our commitment to supporting responsible practices across global supply chains, Earthworm Foundation has conducted field investigations to assess environmental and social grievances across multiple Socfin operations.
These investigations are part of our ongoing efforts to ensure that company practices align with sustainability principles and the rights of local communities.
Earthworm Foundation adheres to the principle of Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) in all community engagements. For each investigation, we reached out directly to affected communities and relevant stakeholders to listen to their concerns and review any evidence provided.
Reports detailing our findings and recommendations can be downloaded below.
The investigations were carried out in two phases:
Phase 1 (March to June 2023)
Focused on:
Phase 2 (August 2023 onward)
Expanded to include:
All Phase 2 field investigations are now complete, and the full reports are publicly available. Additionally, Earthworm Foundation has conducted a separate investigation at Société des Caoutchoucs de Grand-Béréby (SOGB) in Côte d'Ivoire.
We welcome ongoing dialogue with all stakeholders. If you have any questions or additional information to share, please contact: socfin.investigation@earthworm.org
