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 consultation provided insights into the ideas that are shaping the Updated Global Strategic Plan 2021-2026 which will be finalized by the of this year. Based on the results of the first public consultation, the board can now take this process a step further to the next version of this ‘living’ document, which will continue to guide FSC towards helping create a future of Forests For All Forever.
In terms of participation, 151 inputs were collected, 98 of which were from FSC international members. Overall, the first draft of the Global Strategy 2021-2016 was positively received by the stakeholders who participated in the consultation.
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.
This meeting is one of two FSC meetings taking place in Prague the second week of October 2019:

As well as an open space for meetings and debates by chamber.
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.
