This workshop is conducted as part of the project ‘LIFE Legal Wood’ aimed at supporting timber-related companies in Europe with knowledge, tools and training in the requirements of the EU Timber Regulation. Knowing your timber’s origin is not only good for the forests, but good for business. The project is funded by the EU LIFE programme.
The free of charge workshop is split over two half-day sessions to update companies on the requirements of the European Timber Regulation (EUTR). The webinar is designed to deliver hands-on training for practitioners and will answer questions such as which products are covered by the EUTR and how to incorporate due diligence processes to your company’s supply chain.
- Webinar Day One: 24th of February 2021, 09.00 - 13.00 CET
- Webinar Day Two: 26th of February 2021, 09.00 - 11.45 CET
The workshop is hosted by experts in EUTR and will focus on delivering hands-on training for companies to adapt to the EUTR.
