Collaboration is essential to delivering the Better Cotton programme across the world. That’s why we’ve developed an extended network of on-the-ground partners, Implementing Partners, to help cotton farming communities to adopt more sustainable practices. These partners are critical to our success. They play an important role in leading training and support in the field, reaching ever more farmers to provide opportunities to improve their practices. With a strong understanding of local environments and challenges, our close to 70 Implementing Partners deliver training and advice to more than 2.7 million cotton farmers and their communities in 25 countries.

Who are Better Cotton Implementing Partners and what do they do?

We invest in strengthening our partners’ ability to deliver effective training so we can be sure that farmers and farming communities receive the best possible support. Together, we are raising the quality of farmer training, sharing knowledge between countries and helping to maximise positive change in the field. In this way, we can also work towards the same quality and consistency in all the countries where Better Cotton is grown.
