A major environmental event comes to Macao today and tomorrow in the form of the 2024 Global Legal & Sustainable Timber Forum (GLSTF 2024).
Jointly hosted by the Commerce and Investment Promotion Institute (known by its Portuguese initials IPIM) and the International Tropical Timber Organization, the two-day gathering brings together more than 700 enterprises, policymakers and experts from over 40 countries and regions to explore the way forward for green timber.
Delegates will discuss the development of sustainable timber supply chains, while exploring business opportunities and sustainable forest management.
