22 october 2024: TTJ online
A European trade mission to the Selva Maya forest in central America is aimed at developing business to business contacts and timber exports from the region.
The visit is taking place from November 17 to 24 and is open to timber importers, traders and distributors. Urban and other local authority procurement personnel, specifiers and end-users are also invited to join the trip.
The initiative is being organised by not-for-profit sustainable timber and forestry advisers and analysts Probos, in association with the NGO Rainforest Alliance. The latter has been active in the Selva Maya for 30 years, supporting technical capacity building and implementation of sustainable forest management.
