This thesis deals with the topic of the world market of cocoa and chocolate. It also focuses on the problem of child labour which has been present in the cocoa sector for many years and is still relevant. The main goal of the thesis is to present the world market of cocoa and chocolate and to find out whether child labour has an impact on the world trade. The secondary goal is to find out how the problem of child labour in the cocoa sector is currently being addressed. This is achieved through an analysis of the market of cocoa and chocolate and through a case study of the two largest cocoa producers – Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana. The first chapter presents cocoa and chocolate and analyzes the world market of these products. The second chapter deals with Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana and child labour in these countries. The final chapter then examines how various corporate and non-corporate participants of the cocoa and chocolate market address the issue of child labour and whether this issue affects the world trade.
