Think Tank #5 : The 5th ATIBT Think Tank takes place next week

Organized in a hybrid format (it will be possible to participate in person in Nogent-sur-Marne, and by videoconference), Think Tank #5 will be held over two days.

Wednesday, December 7 will be devoted to carbon, on the theme "Giving value back to forests: Carbon finance and biodiversity", focusing on 5 sessions:

Overview of 2022
Biodiversity: Beyond carbon: how to value biodiversity in projects?
Project examples: What are the challenges for forest carbon projects and how have they been (or can they be) overcome?
Investors: What are investors looking for in a forest carbon project and what can we provide?
PPECF: What should we propose to KfW/COMIFAC in a PPECF 4th phase?

The Carbon & Biodiversity Commission, managed by the consultancies Terea and Eticwood, will lead these presentation and discussion sessions.

The following day, December 8, will continue a reflection that is always at the heart of the Think Tanks and the ATIBT marketing program: the issue of improving the image of certified tropical timber in Europe, and new markets.

Coordinated by the ATIBT team and Stratémark, the morning of December 8 will initiate a common reflection on the evolution of the Fair&Precious collective, after having addressed :

The films produced by IMAGEO within the framework of the Marketing program, with the screening of the first episode
The endorsement of the Congo Basin PAC by PEFC International
FSC Motion 23 on Intact Forest Landscapes

The afternoon of December 8 will explore new markets for tropical timber, looking at new regulations and opportunities. Under the coordination of Sarah Laroussi (CNDB), 5 presentations will be discussed:

Tropical timber and timber construction in Europe. Impact of the RE2020
Tropical timber and interior fittings
Tropical timber and exterior fittings in France today
Brief review of the Cites meeting in Panama and prospects for the concerned species
