Illegal Logging

Dialogue on Illegal Logging

TFD hosted its first international dialogue on illegal logging in Hong Kong, from March 7-10, 2005. The dialogue accomplished three objectives: raise awareness amongst business leaders of the problems posed by illegal logging, identify solutions and agree on how participants can work together for widespread adoption of these resolutions.
