This guideline is intended for use by Standard Development Groups in developing, revising and transferring National Forest Stewardship Standards, and by Certification Bodies in developing Interim National Standards (former 'CB standards'). Collectively, Standard Development Groups and Certification Bodies are referred to as ‘Standard Developers'.
The purpose of this guidance document is to facilitate the inclusion of requirements on gender equality in FSC national forest stewardship standards (NFSS) and by so doing, fully address criterion 2.2. It serves to aid standards developers, FSC staff, and other bodies involved in developing and/or approving NFSS, in learning more about the gender equality provisions of the new P&C V5-2 and the IGIs.
This guidance is an analysis comparing the indicators specified in against those specified in and the requirements established in the EU Regulation on Deforestation-free Products (EUDR 2023/1115). The guidance shows how the indicators of the revised Risk Assessment Framework cover requirements specified under indicators in and the alignment with EUDR.
This Guidance is written to support Standard Development Groups (SDGs) in the development of National High Conservation Value (HCV) Frameworks and aims to clarify the specific requirements for the identification, management planning, operations, monitoring and restoration of HCVs in FSC certified forests
This FSC guidance on the implementation of FPIC aims to assist all parties involved in FSC certification in safeguarding the rights of forest dependent indigenous peoples and local communities in or near FSC certified operations.
The Template for National High Conservation Value Frameworks is to provide direction and structure for Standard Development Groups (SDGs) to develop National HCV Frameworks.
This guide provides a generic framework for Integrated Pest, Disease and Weed Management (IPM) on Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified estates, which may include indigenous forests and plantations.
The guidance document is written for standard developers and aims to support in the implementation of relevant International Generic Indicators (IGIS) by providing additional guidance in situations where a standard developer wishes to deviate from the default threshold of 80% of the Intact Forest Landscapes (IFLs) to be protected within the Management Unit (MU).
