The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an international, non-governmental organisation dedicated to promoting responsible management of the world’s forests. Since its foundation in 1994, FSC has grown to become the world’s most respected and widespread forest certification system.

FSC ANZ has launched the first public consultation on the revised FSC Forest Stewardship Standard (FSS) for Australia. The public consultation marks an important milestone in the revision process initiated by FSC ANZ to ensure the FSS continues to promote best-practice responsible forest management and remains fit for purpose.

FSC ANZ is pleased to announce the appointment of James Felton-Taylor as the new Chair of its Board of Directors, following the conclusion of Jon Dee’s second successful term in the role. The appointment was made in accordance with the FSC ANZ Constitution at the first Board meeting following the Annual General Meeting.

FSC Forest Week is a global awareness campaign, held globally the last week of September, that drives appreciation of our forests, raises awareness about FSC’s work and highlights the role forest stewards, like you, have in fighting climate change and biodiversity loss by supporting sustainable forestry.
