The European Union's Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) heralds a new era in sustainable commodity crop sourcing. But how can we ensure that the mapping and reporting requirements are met in a way that's fair and equitable to all stakeholders?

During this session, you'll hear from 3 organizations that are leveraging mapping tools for social and environmental impact: Talk 1: "Accelerating innovative forest monitoring for high-integrity MRV" - Remi Dannunzio, UN FAO Talk 2: "Better tools for capacity-development: SilvaCarbon and Google Earth Engine" - Sylvia N Wilson, SilvaCarbon Talk 3: "Driving Positive Change: The Communities Approach to Climate Mitigation" - Larissa Valadão, ECAM and Sandra Braga, CONAQ

In an effort to combat the alarming rates of deforestation caused by commodity supply chains, the European Union (EU) introduced the groundbreaking EU Deforestation Regulation. The regulation aims to address the environmental and social issues associated with deforestation, ensuring that the EU market becomes free from products linked to illegal deforestation and forest degradation.
