Forests are frontline defenders against climate change and biodiversity loss. Topics in this session will include:
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 webinar was the occasion to provide our members with more background information on this theme. FSC organized 2 identical webinars on 25 October 2023 to discuss FSC and the EUDR.
Responsible forest management must consider people as well. This discussion will cover key issues such as:
