Terms of Reference for Steering Committee Members of Project Improving capacity building and knowledge sharing to support the management of cadmium levels in cocoa in Latin America and the Caribbean for export to the EU.
The project aims to support cocoa producing countries in Latin America and the Caribbean meet the 2019 European Regulation, and others to follow, that set maximum levels for cadmium in cocoa and chocolate products. The geological formation of soils in Latin America and the Caribbean has resulted in naturally occurring deposits of cadmium and other heavy metals across the region. This is potentially problematic as heavy metals in foods can have adverse effects on human health.
