He also shared Cascale’s evolving approach to traceability and policy guidance, highlighting the organization’s focus on capacity building and collective action in line with ESG best practices across the value chain.

Crowley concluded his presentation by speaking on upcoming legislation, noting Cascale’s efforts to track and share policy developments, including the “Navigating Legislation & the Higg Index” webinar series and reports.
