FSC Forest Week 2024

Friday 20 Sep 2024

 
This Saturday, September 21, marks the start of FSC® Forest Week 2024, a global initiative aimed at raising consumer awareness about the critical role of sustainable forestry. Running from 21-27 September 2024, this campaign, led by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), shines a light on the vital role of sustainable forestry in safeguarding the health of our planet. It highlights the incredible work of FSC forest stewards, who are on the front lines of combating climate change and addressing the biodiversity crisis.

Over the years, FSC Forest Week has gained significant momentum, inspiring individuals, businesses, and organisations worldwide to take action. This year’s theme, “Small steps together create big change for all”, encourages participants to reflect on how simple daily actions, like making responsible purchasing decisions, can collectively drive significant positive impacts for our planet and its forests.

In Australia and New Zealand, forestry organisations, retail giants, fashion brands, packaging leaders, environmental NGOs, and more will be celebrating in an array of ways. From social media participation to magazine features, catalogue highlights, internal awareness events, competitions, and other innovative approaches, FSC certificate holders, members, and promotional licence holders are demonstrating their commitment to sustainable forestry in dynamic and impactful ways.

The campaign's call to action is clear: taking steps, no matter how small, contributes to a more sustainable future. FSC Forest Week offers a unique opportunity for consumers, business leaders, and social and environmental organisations alike to engage in the conversation and help spread awareness about the importance of managing forests sustainably for future generations. But the work doesn't stop at the end of the week—FSC encourages everyone to continue making conscious, forest-friendly choices in their daily lives, making this celebration the start of ongoing, positive change.


Whether you’re an FSC certificate holder, member, or promotional licence holder, you can join the movement by registering for the campaign. If you're outside the FSC system, you can still show your support by liking and sharing FSC ANZ’s content on social media. Together, we can make a meaningful difference for our forests and the planet's future.
