What action on zero deforestation pledges?

Joining speakers from the private sector, research community and non-governmental organisations, Ruth will introduce the issues surrounding deforestation pledges and the challenges of aligning public and private sector sustainability goals.

 The discussion forum hosted by the Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) and the Tropical Forest Alliance 2020 (TFA 2020) will focus on the case of palm oil in Indonesia.

The Global Landscapes Forum is one of the world’s largest platforms for discussing land use issues. In Paris, the Forum is expected to bring together 2,500 stakeholders from the forestry, agriculture, water, energy, law and finance sectors.

Timed to coincide with the 21st UNFCCC Conference of Parties, the 2015 Global Landscapes Forum will take place at the Palais des Congrès in Paris.
