FLEG News

What is FLEG News?

 

FLEG News is a  periodic newsletter designed to provide updates and share information related to regional Forest Law Enforcement and Governance (FLEG) Ministerial processes. Regional FLEG Ministerial processes aim to galvanize international and multi-stakeholder commitment to combat the problem of illegal logging and associated trade and corruption at high political levels by creating the political space at national and regional levels for governments to address these complex and politically sensitive issues in partnership with major stakeholders from civil society and the private sector. These processes recognize the need for joint efforts and shared responsibility among countries with important producer, consumer, and trade roles with regard to illegally sourced timber and timber products.  FLEG News aims to improve awareness of initiatives related to forest law enforcement and governance, illegal logging and associated trade that support  the objectives of the FLEG processes.
