Earthworm Foundation works with companies, communities and farmers to instill responsible practices across a range of forest and agricultural industries to build value chains that work for people and nature. The Kumacaya initiative empowers local communities to monitor the social performance of supply chains through a “blind trust” that pools funds to enable private companies investing in forest environments to assist local communities, for instance by mobilizing independent civil society skills to assist with necessary mapping and subsequent monitoring of land and forest resources.
