The European Timber Regulation (EUTR) was passed in 2010 to prevent the entry of illegal timber into the European Union. Despite this, companies still lack knowledge about how to comply with the regulation and the harm that non-compliance poses to their supply chains.
Free virtual training
MITERD , in collaboration with the non-profit environmental organization Preferred by Nature , organizes these free online workshops within the framework of the LIFE Legal Wood project, which was created to raise awareness, train and comply with the EUTR regulation and the elimination of the illegal timber market.
The workshops will take place in the morning on February 17 and 19. Their methodology will focus on providing practical training to companies so their professionals can learn due diligence procedures and supply chain analysis, including an introduction to the virtual tools available for compliance with the EUTR regulation.
