Nadar’s CEO Caroline Busse was part of the Climate Bonds Industry Working Group that developed the Deforestation & Conversion-Free Sourcing Criteria. The Criteria set a new standard for Agri-Food Entities sourcing commodities free of deforestation and conversion of natural ecosystems, and expand from the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).

The expert webinar introduces the DCF Criteria followed by a panel discussion with industry representatives (Caroline Busse, Nadar) and technical experts (Niall Robb, Accountabilty Framework Initiative/Rainforest Alliance and Dr. Chunquan Zhu, WEF China). Main topics cover:

• Key priorities and challenges in achieving deforestation and conversion-free supply chains in the Agri-Food sector.
• Importance of aigning global standards, including reflecting on the current EU Deforestation Regulation.
• Preparedness of the companies for the traceability, due diligence, and monitoring requirements.
• Role of technology and innovation in achieving deforestation and conversion-free supply chains.
