This event will bring together private, public, and civil society sectors together to explore solutions to commodity-driven deforestation, and showcase progress being made to better conserving and restoring forests while improving farmer livelihoods. A panel of speakers from key sectors – commodity and consumer goods companies, financial institutions, civil society, and government – will discuss action already underway, including through the Agri-Commodity Sector Roadmap, the Forest Data Partnership, United States government action, and more, and look ahead to the challenges that remain. The event will be organized by the USG in collaboration with partner companies and organizations.
