Function of CCA
The CCA is made up of players from the cotton sector, cotton farm groups, those in the cotton production sector, buyers, sub-contractors, vendors, exporters, warehousing companies, the clothing industry and cotton research organisations.
Members of the association are either organisations or businesses working in the cotton sector that wish to participate in a Chinese consultation structure. Set up in September 2003, the association has since actively developed numerous service and conciliation activities, set up a code of ethics and internal regulations as well as professional protection services within the sector.
The association has become one of the major partners and an important relay between official organisations, governmental structures and agricultural and industrial players in the Chinese cotton sector.
It is a major player in the steady and stable development of the Chinese cotton sector. In relation to international trade, over the last four years it has established numerous working relationships and many regular exchanges with organisations in the cotton trade and industry in the main producer and cotton buying countries worldwide.

Famous quotes containing the words function of and/or function:
“The mother’s and father’s attitudes toward the child correspond to the child’s own needs.... Mother has the function of making him secure in life, father has the function of teaching him, guiding him to cope with those problems with which the particular society the child has been born into confronts him.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
“Advocating the mere tolerance of difference between women is the grossest reformism. It is a total denial of the creative function of difference in our lives. Difference must be not merely tolerated, but seen as a fund of necessary polarities between which our creativity can spark like a dialectic.”
—Audre Lorde (1934–1992)
