All members of the BCI are expected to apply principles of participation, of which number 5 applies to Communications. That is:
5.1 Members shall comply with BCI’s Communication Rules covering how their participation in BCI may be described publicly.

The Communication Rules aim to clarify key rules relating to how members can publicly communicate about their membership of BCI, the support they provide to farmers, and their use of Better Cotton in their supply chain.

All BCI members have a collective responsibility to ensure that all communication relating to their organisation’s involvement with BCI is accurate, evidence based and in line with these Communications Rules.

The credibility and integrity of BCI and members’ work is dependant on these being consistently and rigorously applied.
