During the 2017 PEFC Stakeholder Dialogue, Sarah Price, Head of Projects and Development, highlighted “There is seemingly no question amongst our diverse stakeholders that forest certification needs to embrace modern innovations and technology.” Hence, the 2018 Collaboration Fund will inspire purposeful innovation within forest certification.
The Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification is an international non-profit, non-governmental organization dedicated to promoting sustainable forest management through independent third-party certification.
