Livelihoods Cocoa and Smallholder's Deforestation (Licosh)

The trade in agricultural commodities and wildlife contributes to economic development, but it also has unavoidable social and environmental consequences. Balancing the benefits and negative impacts is an intractable challenge in the implementation of sustainable trade. To overcome this challenge, menjadi the Trade, Development, and the Environment Hub (TRADE Hub) will examine the trade in agricultural commodities and wildlife through research activities in various areas ranging from supply chains; the social and environmental impacts of trade; the modelling of future scenarios; through to formulating recommendations for the public and private sectors.
