FSC International announced the public consultation of the FSC Remedy Framework on 11 March 2022.

The FSC Remedy Framework defines the mechanisms FSC will use to address forest conversion and other violations of FSC’s Policy for Association. It brings together the provisions of FSC’s previous drafts of the Conversion Remedy Procedure and Policy for Association Remediation Framework, which were developed in parallel, in 2021.

All stakeholders who care about the future of forests, and the people who live and work in them, are invited to participate in the public consultation. Feedback received from stakeholders through the consultation (and other engagement activities) will play an important role in enabling FSC to finalise the framework by the end of 2022.

If you have not already done so, please submit your feedback through the FSC Consultation Platform. The public consultation closes on 10 May 2022.

All updates regarding the FSC Remedy Framework are shared here.
