As part of its continuous effort to integrate digitalisation into the organisation, Fairtrade International has launched two new dashboards – one for its West Africa Cocoa Programme’s (WACP) monitoring report with updated data and one specifically for cocoa.  

The new, interactive WACP’s monitoring report dashboard shows continued growth in training in Côte d’Ivoire (CDI), Ghana, and Sierra Leone. In 2024, a total of 51,891 participants, of which 9,961 were female, about 20 percent, participated in some form of training. This represents a 6 percent increase when compared to 48,876 participants in 2023.  

In fact, the dashboard’s new data pointed out that thanks to Fairtrade training, designed specifically for the West African cocoa context with topics such as human rights and environmental due diligence, deforestation, and traceability and transparency, small producer organisation management have the skills needed to run resilient and effective cooperatives, and have taken positive action on the ground. Some 96 percent of respondents in CDI and 100 percent of respondents in Ghana and Sierra Leone said that they were satisfied with the quality of Fairtrade’s training.      

All of the small producer organisations interviewed said they had an internal management system, as well as an approved business strategy or plan in place that is guiding their decision making. Specifically, more than half, 65 percent, of the respondents in CDI, and about 50 percent in Ghana, noted that Fairtrade trainings were the reason why there were significant improvements in organisation management.

The data in WACP’s monitoring report dashboard, collected through interviews with small producer organisation management, showed that small producer organisations took concrete actions to support income diversification and/or food security. For example, cocoa small producer organisations interviewed in Ghana all said they supported their members with income diversification activities, such off-farm economic and household security activities, including the production of food and cash crops.

Previously, data from Fairtrade’s WACP was shared via a monitoring report, however this year the information is located on the interactive dashboard where users, including cooperatives, traders, retailers, or anyone else interested in the WACP, can easily access the data points and compare them to previous years. 

Meanwhile, the new Cocoa Dashboard provides the latest information available on Fairtrade cocoa. It includes detailed information about production, sales and key benefits, such as the Fairtrade Premium and how it is used by cocoa producers.

The new dashboards are part of a portfolio of digital tools to assist Fairtrade stakeholders, which also include the Fairtrade Impact Map (2021) and the Fairtrade Risk Map (2023).

The Fairtrade Impact Map displays data and information on more than 100 Fairtrade projects and commissioned studies around the world.* The users of the tool can explore by country, region, commodity, theme, programme, or year. The Fairtrade Risk Map supports all actors in global supply chains – farmers, worker organisations, retailers, brands – in assessing their human rights and environmental risks. Here too, users have a few options to explore by including country, commodity, or issue. The Banana Dashboard (2023) and the Coffee Dashboard (2025) are product focused.

*A new global dashboard with expanded functionality, the Impact Platform, will be released soon and replace the existing Fairtrade Impact Map.
