nancy daiss
This path has helped her uncover what truly fuels her: projects that are rooted in ethics and driven by positive impact. That’s why she is passionate about her collaboration with appellando. Our mission—to develop a global multi-stakeholder framework for harmonizing grievance mechanisms and protecting human rights and the environment in supply chains—resonates deeply with everything Nancy stands for.
As an external consultant supporting Spanish companies, she values close relationships with growers, working with each of them to find the best ways to integrate appellando’s principles in a way that’s practical, effective, and tailored to their reality. Her background as an agricultural engineer, with nearly three decades of experience in the sector and living in Spain, helps her bridge the strategic with the grassroots.
