As you might know, the FSC International Board of Directors has made EUDR one of the top priorities for the whole organization worldwide as they expect this project to have impacts way beyond the European Union.

The first public consultation for the first draft of the Global Strategic Plan 2021-2026 was carried out from 18 December 2019 to 26 February 2020.

The public consultation of the second draft of the Global Strategy 2021-2026 was open for 30 days, from 4 September until 4 October 2020, with the aim to collect stakeholders’ feedback on a series of questions about the second draft. This second consultation was one of the additional engagement mechanisms incorporated by the FSC International Board of Directors in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the postponement of the FSC General Assembly.
In total, 80 participants provided feedback, 59 of whom were FSC International Members. The second draft of the FSC Global Strategy 2021-2026 was in general well received by the participants of the consultation. Most of the answers showed levels of agreement of ≈ 3/4 of all responses, with the remaining quarter consisting of neutrality and disagreements. Most of the views reflected that the FSC Global Strategy 2021-2026 represents a set of consolidated and agreeable aspirations for the years to come.
The programme is available on the FSC General Assembly 2017 website. It covers the whole week of the event:
