Bonn, Germany (7 December, 2016) - The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) has decided to place the Schweighofer Group on probation for possible disassociation for involvement in irregularities and illegalities in its timber trade operations and in illegal logging by its Romanian forest land enterprise.

October was an exciting and busy month for FSC UK, beginning with the Annual Members’ Meeting (AMM) in London and followed by two weeks at the NEC, first at The Print Show and then at Timber Expo, part of UK Construction Week.

In this guest special, Chairperson of the FSC International Board of Directors, Rulita Wijayaningdyah describes her first-hand experience of gender equality, and inequality, in the forestry industry.
