NYU Stern School of Business and the Rainforest Alliance invite you to join us this year at the Rainforest Alliance Sustainable Cocoa Investment Challenge.
About the Competition
RA Sustainable Cocoa Investment Challenge Guidelines
The Rainforest Alliance Sustainable Cocoa Investment Challenge seeks to identify proposals for the design of an investment mechanism that would attract public and private capital to finance the renovation of aging and unproductive cocoa farms held by smallholder farmers in cocoa producing countries (Cote d’Ivoire, Ghana, Indonesia, etc.)
The winning team will be awarded 10-week summer fellowships with the Rainforest Alliance supported by NYU Stern.
Each team will submit a proposal by January 30th. Of those, 3 teams will be selected to present to a panel of judges on March 25th, where the winning team will be chosen.
This challenge is open to students enrolled in the following programs at NYU:
- Stern MBA
- Stern UND Seniors
- Wagner MPA
- Law JD
- SCP (various programs)
