Forest certification is at the core of our work, as we promote and enable sustainable forest management around the world. We recognize that while the concept of sustainable forest management is global in nature, its implementation is local. This is why we work with local organizations and people to advance responsible forestry. This brochure provides an overview of how we approach the core of our work, forest certification.
