Value Chain Governance: Entrance Points for Interventions to Address Children’s Harmful Work in Agriculture

Published on 21 January 2021

This paper presents different types of governance mechanisms that can be present in a specific value chain and explores how these can be used or need to be modified in view of intentions to reduce children’s harmful work.

We primarily look at the way that the unobservable process-related quality attributes of a product are currently governed and discussed. We identify interactions/coordination processes that we feel are relevant for ACHA and likely entrance points for interventions.
