Our Commitment To The Sustainable Development Goals
CropConex is committed to leveraging technology to support agricultural development worldwide. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity.
Our team is proud our technology can facilitate several of the SDG goals in alignment with our mission to make a lasting impact in our industry and in the world.
SDG 1: No Poverty With the majority of the world’s extreme poor working in agriculture, using CropConex’s digital platform to register farmers, increase market access, and improve rural financial services, can make significant contribution to reducing poverty.
SDG 2: End Hunger Conflict, COVID-19, and growing inequities are undermining food security worldwide. CropConex supports thriving businesses in the agricultural sector where food insecurity can be most acute.
SDG 5: Gender Equity We support inclusive capacity building programs, focusing on female representation at every workshop, training, and event.
SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth We enable a more direct and transparent smallholder access to formal and global agricultural value chains, generating improved livelihoods and more stable income sources.
SDG 10: Reduce Inequality Within and Among Countries We target the mid-to-long tail of both sides of the supply chain (producers and roasters) to ensure equal access to opportunity across the supply chain.
SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production We provide information to enable data-driven decision making to enhance produce post-harvest processing, storage, and transportation practices to reduce product waste.
SDG 13: Climate Action With climate change creating huge impacts on emerging market farmers, we help reduce the carbon foot print of the coffee value chain through consolidated shipping and optimized trade routes.
SDG 16: Promote Inclusive Societies and Inclusive Institutions CropConex unlocks economic opportunity along the supply chain by breaking down the barriers to trade for new and small entrants to the global economy.
SDG 17: Promote Global Partnership for Sustainable Development We work closely with government institutions and cross-border partners to align interests in the public-private sector and foster an environment of productivity and sustainable growth.
