At the Committee on Sustainability Assessment, volunteering can offer insights and awareness of challenges to the sustainability of some of our core food systems: coffee, cocoa, tea, and more. Nearly one-seventh of the world’s population depends on farming for their livelihoods. They are among the most vulnerable workers or families anywhere; most are small farmers working small plots of land. We are looking for people who feel as passionate as we do about understanding global sustainability and want to help us grow public awareness of the issues:
- Who will grow your coffee in the future?
- What happens when a company discovers child or forced labor in its supply chain?
- How can farmers build resilience?
We are looking for communications support. If you are good at putting sometimes complex but cutting-edge subject matter into simple, easy-to-understand language, for short assignments, we would love to hear from you.

Mission Statement
COSA's mission is to advance systematic and science-based measurement tools for understanding, managing, and accelerating sustainability. We envision a world with a balanced and global understanding of the environmental, social, and economic dimensions to mutually advance sustainable agriculture.
Description
COSA unlocks the data needed to transform agricultural value chains and farming practices to achieve bold sustainability goals, meet strict new regulations, and improve livelihoods, all while regenerating natural capital. Our funders include governments, foundations, NGOs, and the private sector, including Fortune 500 brands. Our tools and services help actors understand critical issues in their supply chains and sustainability programs (e.g., child labor, food security, deforestation) and understand where their efforts to improve conditions are having the desired impact.
