Our Collaborations
THE EARTHWORM FOUNDATION
Since 2018, Transparence SA has collaborated together with Earthworm Foundation to transform extractive supply chains. Earthworm Foundation is a non-profit organisation built on values and driven by the desire to positively impact the relationship between people and nature. With most of their staff operating directly on the ground where the issues are, Earthworm Foundation works with their members and partners to show that global supply chains can be an engine of prosperity without causing destruction of communities or ecosystems. To achieve impact at scale, we have developed an approach and a set of tools relevant for all actors along the supply chain, from enhancing artisanal and small-scale miner livelihoods to creating supply chain links, as well as enhancing social license to operate for exploration and mining companies, processing plants and refiners. The combined effect is a complete solution for responsible mining.
THE X FOUNDATION
Transparence supported the creation of The X Foundation. By setting up a global network of value chain partners, it aims to be unique, transparent and impactful. Transparence intervenes in the material value chain, especially within the virgin and urban mined metals and coloured gemstones sphere. We approach it with a mine to market focus acting as bridge-builders by sharing our long-lasting, pragmatic solutions in the precious material sectors.
THE CONSTELLATION
Since 2005, The Constellation is an organization generating systemic change by connecting a growing network of resilient communities. Together, we create significant impact on some of today’s most pressing social challenges. The Constellation has relied on its innovative methodology, co-created and tested with actors in the field: the SALT/CLCP. The support process of The Constellation enables ownership and empowerment of the communities which take the lead in solving their problems.
