CASCADE

A concrete and virtuous project to support natural rubber producers in Indonesia.

Reinforcing competencies

Together with Porsche, CASCADE, an acronym for Committed Actions for Smallholder CApacity DEvelopment, is a capacity-building project with smallholder natural rubber farmers and their families in Central Sumatra, Indonesia. 

This four-year project aims to address sustainability risks linked to natural rubber production, based on results from RubberWay™ risk assessments, by empowering smallholder farmers to adopt sustainable practices.

A digital training tool is used to enhance scalability and measure impacts. This project is unique as it encompasses the entirety of the supply chain, from car manufacturer to smallholder farmers.
