We are striving for EU action to protect and restore forests and other natural ecosystems worldwide while protecting human rights. A comprehensive set of measures and initiatives, including new legislation, is essential to reduce the EU’s footprint on the world’s natural ecosystems.
We have developed responses to the European Commission's public consultation focussing on questions or options that ensure our call for a strong law addressing deforestation, forest degradation, ecosystem conversion and degradation, and the protection of human rights is heard.
