The Transparency Pathway

The Transparency Pathway is a collaborative method to manage sustainability risks in complex global supply chains at scale. It brings together stakeholders at all points of the supply chain – including governments, companies and civil society – to lay the foundation for improving sustainability and to inform trade dialogues.

It charts six pragmatic steps that are designed to make collaboration between public and private supply chain actors more impactful and inclusive, while reducing costs and gaining positive visibility in global commodity markets. Incremental information disclosure is used as a mechanism to reduce information asymmetry among actors, improve governance and support increased accountability.
