PEFC Annual Review 2015

Annual Review

2015 was the year that saw the adoption of the SDGs by the UN General Assembly and important climate change commitments at COP21 in Paris. This Annual Review captures just a few of our activities and those of our members, but it already demonstrates that sustainable forest management is much more than just an environmental issue. It equally addresses the social, economic and cultural dimensions of sustainability at the core of the 17 SDGs.
