In this webinar, members had the chance to ask the candidates questions, ask about their position on relevant topics, and their vision for the future of FSC under their leadership.
This two-day meeting covered relevant FSC topics for members in North America, including:

FSC Priorities in North America
General Assembly Update
Thematic Discussions on topics including: solid wood market development; climate & ecosystem services; showcasing additional value for certificate holders and more.
We have come a long way on climate and ecosystem services (CES) over the past two years. We now have a stronger market position, three value propositions, a business model progressing towards implementation, technology roadmap, and not least a strong team in Bonn and in three regions.

The report on the revision of the FSC Principles and Criteria (Version 5-2) is now available for a 50-day public consultation.
