A Sustainable Business podcast by Innovation Forum
Earthworm Foundation CEO Bastien Sachet reflects with Ian Welsh on why environmental and supply chain shocks are caused by long-term neglect rather than short-term disruption. Bastien argues that businesses have treated nature as a free factory, optimising costs while failing to reinvest in soils, forests and farming communities. They explore why regenerative, place-based approaches and long-term partnerships are becoming essential to secure future supply, manage risk and maintain competitiveness.
Due Diligence and Risk Mitigation in Smallholder Supply Chains - Using the landscape approach to answer EUDR and upcoming regulations.
Join Earthworm and Global Rights Compliance for an online event to help businesses who source agricultural commodities to prepare for mandatory human rights due diligence regulations.
Implementing human rights due diligence in supply chains brings real benefits to companies, but it can also be daunting. To help demystify the process we've invited two seasoned corporate practitioners from Nestlé and pladis to share their experiences, bringing real-life examples from the field of the impact this approach can bring for workers and stakeholders.
