Impact, special achievements & commitmentsEn/Fr
The Cooperative Society (SCFPBWK) is committed to 3 groups of shea almond collectors from the villages of KOASSA, BEBTENGA and to regularly purchase all of their almonds at costs studied in accordance with fair trade regulations. The income thus generated allows the women collectors, as well as around thirty women processors, to support their families. Through fair trade, all women actors are made aware of the respect of good practices in sustainable forest management, organic farming and fairtrade regulations. SCFPBWK only resorts to purchasing shea kernels from other external partners when the collection areas of the 3 villages cannot provide the expected quantities. The shea kernels are then purchased from other certified producers. The development fund donated each year is used for socio-economic achievements in favor of impacted communities.
La Société Coopérative (SCFPBWK) s'est engagée auprès de 3 groupements de Collectrices d'amandes de karité des villages de KOASSA, BEBTENGA et à acheter régulièrement, la totalité de leurs amandes à des coûts étudiés conformément aux règlements du commerce équitable. Les revenus ainsi générés, permettent aux femmes collectrices, ainsi qu'à une trentaine de femmes transformatrices, de soutenir leurs familles. A travers le commerce équitable, toutes les femmes actrices sont sensibilisées au respect des bonnes pratiques en gestion durable des forêts, agriculture biologique et aux règlements du commerce équitable. SCFPBWK n'a recours à l'acquisition d'amandes de karité auprès d'autres partenaires externes que seulement lorsque les zones de collectes des 3 villages ne peuvent fournir les quantités attendues. Les amandes de karité sont alors rachetées auprès d'autres productrices certifiées. Le fonds de développement reversé chaque année, est utilisé pour des réalisations socio-économiques en faveur des communautés impactées.
