What We Do

We’re creating a transparent, responsible, and resilient organic cotton supply chain that promotes farmer prosperity and advances the organic cotton sector’s shared sustainability goals. As an accelerator, we want to get to this future, faster.

A catalyst for change

We’ve made a commitment to bring integrity, supply security and measurable social and environmental impact to organic cotton. How do we do this? Our Programmes deliver the key solutions required for the organic cotton sector to flourish. Our Platform facilitates the collaboration needed to create meaningful impact throughout the value chain. To succeed in our mission, we focus our efforts on three commitments which are the foundation of our interventions:

• Convening the sector around a common agenda
• Improving farmer profitability and prosperity
• Enhancing the integrity of the organic cotton sector

Measuring Results

Everything OCA does is focused on achieving the greatest possible impact in line with our mission, in the most efficient, effective and sustainable way possible. To ensure this, OCA makes monitoring and evaluation (M&E) and learning a key part of our work. In practice, M&E means constant analysis, reflection and iteration of our work – enabling successful tailoring of approaches to local problems and contexts and full transparency for our donors and partners.
