WEBINAR: Accelerating sustainable supply chains in Europe: The case of palm oil

20 January 2021. In the first half of this decade the first landscape approaches emerged as an alternative to supply chain approaches. The real challenge is to identify HOW we build on the lessons learned to take the best of both worlds. We need to cooperate to transition business and society behind a clean, resilient and inclusive future.

This webinar explored the current thinking around sustainable value chains, and we invite you to join us on this journey to help lead the clean and just transition.
