Growing your ideas for the social, environmental and economic management of the world’s forests

.

This website has been created as an information hub containing everything you need to know about the International Generic Indicators (IGIs): their background; why they’re being developed; which FSC Standards and stakeholders they will affect; how they will be implemented; and when. Here, you’ll also find details on the various groups, meetings and consultations that have been put in place to develop the IGIs; and, importantly, how you can contribute to them.

As you browse through this website you’ll find a web page containing more information on each of these elements. You can also find out about the current status of the IGIs and transfer process, the latest news on these parallel processes, and how you can get involved.

We hope you’ll find this website an interesting and a valuable resource in shaping your input to the IGIs, as well as a forum in which to share your views on the latest developments. Above all, we want to make this a rich and rewarding experience for everyone. Developing the IGIs means growing your ideas for the social, environmental and economic management of the world’s forests – so please join us.
