These global meetings amongst international members kicked-off motion discussions.

We invite all members to continue the discussion and post questions or discussion points in the Motions Platform area for each motion for the session and for further discussion after the event. Having the questions posted means that the proposer can make responses there and the discussion can then continue in this area.

This two-day meeting covered relevant FSC topics for members in the Africa region.
We’ve developed a digital platform to allow you to view and monitor the progress made on the actions defined in our implementation plan. Aimed at FSC members and staff, this platform introduces the 16 priority projects the board selected for 2017, and will continue to be updated as progress is made.
FSC requires to set aside large areas – within a default level of 80 per cent – of the intact forest landscapes within management units. The additional guidance advises standard developers in situations that require deviating from this default threshold.
A new version of FSC-STD-40-006 V2-0 FSC Standard for Project Certification came into effect on 1 February 2020.
Just as the forests are constantly changing and adapting, FSC’s standards, procedures and policies are continuously adapted, revised and developed to ensure responsible forestry globally.
The FSC General Assembly (GA) is where the voices of our diverse membership meet, debate, and set the course for responsible forest management worldwide. Unlike most organizations, FSC’s direction and focus are shaped directly by its members; through motions proposed, refined, and voted on at the GA.
Reflecting on the year, it’s clear that we have overcome many challenges and achieved a great deal together, demonstrating our unwavering commitment to Forests For All Forever. As 2022 draws to a close, we would like to share our gratitude and highlight some of the areas where we have gone further together.
