Webinar on Motion23/Intact Forest Landscapes implementation update

The implementation of Motion 23/2022 ‘Use landscape-wide approaches adapted to local conditions and strengthen Standard Development Groups (SDGs) to improve the protection of Intact Forest Landscapes’ has reached an important milestone. Thanks to a collaborative work which included researchers, experts, Focus Forest Advisory Group, FSC International and FSC National Offices, landscape considerations for certification within Intact Forest Landscapes (IFLs) can now be tested on the field through pilots. Interested Standard Development Groups in countries with IFLs can follow the Procedure FSC-PRO-60-004 V1-0 EN Draft 1-0 ‘Development of indicators for the protection of Intact Forest Landscapes considering the landscape level’ and its supporting Guidance. 

About 130 members from across chambers joined us on Thursday, July 11th at 4:00 PM CET for a webinar session, where they also had the opportunity to ask questions. Find the presentations and other resources below.

HLC_DAY2
Alliances for Nature-Based Solutions: Companies, Donors and Indigenous Peoples Coming Together for Forest Stewardship

This High-Level Conference took place online on 10 December 2020.

The purpose of this high-level session was to discuss how different actors can work together to develop forest stewardship and robust verification mechanisms, complementing other efforts carried out under public and private initiatives to meet global targets.

The event had a focus on four main themes:

  • Climate Change – Julianne Baroody from Verra, which manages a standard for certifying carbon emissions reductions (the Verified Carbon Standard), discussed the climate change mitigation benefits – and potential financial benefits to forest managers – of responsible forest management practices such as those certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).
     
  • Biodiversity – Nelson Kroll from Maderacre, a forestry company in the Peruvian Amazon, talked about their engagement to demonstrate positive impact on biodiversity through certification of ecosystem services.
     
  • Forests for People and Nature – Juan Anzieta from Arauco, a global forestry company headquartered in Chile, talked about their efforts to create forest value for people through certification of ecosystem services and engagement with surrounding populations.
     
  • Human rights (Indigenous Peoples’ rights) – Luis-Felipe Duchicela, Senior Advisor for Indigenous Peoples' Issues at USAID, The United States Agency for International Development, presented their new Indigenous Peoples’ Policy and how many of its ideas are reflected in a new Global Development Alliance with FSC to enable Indigenous Peoples to secure their rights and improve their livelihoods.

The topics covered in the four presentations were brought together in a panel discussion facilitated by Hindou Oumarou Ibrahim, an environmentalist and advocate for indigenous people.

Over 450 registered participants from around the world joined the presentations and subsequent discussions. You can find the meeting recordings below.

Launching FSC’s Global Strategy 2021-2026 – Demonstrating the Value and Benefits of Forest Stewardship

This High-Level Conference took place online on 10 December 2020.

Members of the Board Strategic Planning Committee (BSPC) and invited panelists discussed different important issues related to the new Global Strategy 2021-2026 while addressing what the strategy can mean for their topic of focus.

The session was facilitated by John Ramsay, many times the facilitator of FSC General Assemblies. It was introduced by Al Thorne and Zandra Martinez, Board of Directors and BSPC members discussing what they see as the main new elements in the strategy and how they expect it will change FSC.

Chris Elliott, Executive Director of the Climate and Land Use Alliance (CLUA) and member of the External Advisory Group for the Global Strategy, reflected on how the new strategy compares to where FSC came from over 25 years ago.

This was followed by three thematic sessions, cross-referencing the discussion with elements of the 3 strategies, goals and intended outcomes:

  • Leveraging the role of FSC as a facilitator of co–created forest-based innovative solutions for Climate Change:
    Pina Gervassi, FSC International Climate Change Director and Walter Vergara Senior Fellow at World Resources Institute (WRI)
     
  • Demonstrating the value and impacts of FSC through unleashing the power of data: 
    Michael Marus, FSC International’s Global Chief Information Officer and Director of IT and Enrica Porcari, Chief Information Officer and Director of Technology of the World Food Programme (WFP) and member of the External Advisory Group for the Global Strategy
     
  • Scaling up benefits for smallholders and Indigenous Peoples:
    Vera Santos, FSC International New Approaches Project Manager and Francisco Souza, FSC Indigenous Foundation Managing Director.

To close this session and pave the way forward, Kim Carstensen, FSC International Director General, reflected on the discussions, perspectives, and opportunities to continue building the path for the years to come, together.
