Globally, our forests are increasingly faced with deforestation and forest degradation. There is a growing need to protect forests with unique social and environmental values such as Intact Forest landscapes (IFL), old-growth forests, Indigenous Cultural Landscapes (ICL) and similar forests. But often, there is disagreement on the right approach to protect or conserve these forests. Â
FSC is doing this by introducing a global framework for discussion and a new method for dialogues.
