Promoting awareness about sustainable forest certification.

On February 27th, the Yen Lap Forest Management Unit organized a conference in Trung Son commune to disseminate information about sustainable forest certification (FSC) to 50 people, including heads of administrative areas, forest owners, and local residents.

At the conference, delegates heard presentations from forestry officials on the importance of FSC sustainable forest certification in enhancing the economic value of forests, protecting the environment, and meeting international standards for forestry development. FSC certification will help people expand the market for legally sourced timber products, contributing to improved sustainable livelihoods.

At the same time, forest rangers provided detailed guidance on the registration process, necessary requirements, and benefits of participating in FSC certification. Local people and forest farmers actively exchanged information and asked questions to better understand the support policies and how to apply them to their production practices.

The conference contributed to raising community awareness about sustainable forest management, guiding people to effectively implement FSC standards, and aiming for environmentally friendly and economically valuable forestry development.
