#1-2024 / ‘Conservation Timber,’ wood with a story!
Eli Prins, Mark van Benthem, Sietze van Dijk
A year and a half ago, Stichting Probos was asked to use its knowledge and contacts to develop a market for ‘conservation timber’ as part of the Cities4Forests program. This has resulted in partnerships between the municipalities of Amsterdam and Rotterdam and forest communities in Suriname, Bolivia, Guyana, and Guatemala. Conservation timber from these community forests is being used for various applications, including benches, boardwalks, and bicycle and pedestrian bridges. In this article, you will read why and how Probos is working on this initiative.

#1-2022 / FLEGT VPA Independent Market Monitoring 2021 voor Nederland
Met het FLEGT Actieplan wil de EU zorgen dat er enkel nog aantoonbaar legaal geoogste en verwerkte houtproducten op de EU markt gebracht worden. Sinds 2017 is Stichting Probos voor Nederland nationaal correspondent voor de FLEGT Independent Market Monitoring (IMM) en rapporteert jaarlijks over de effecten van FLEGT VPA op de Nederlandse houthandel. Daarvoor voert zij interviews uit bij de importerende houthandel. In dit Bosbericht worden de belangrijkste resultaten van de IMM monitor van de afgelopen jaren voor Nederland beschreven met nadruk op 2021.
