Towards a digital public infrastructure for deforestation-related trade regulations
What is in that plot? (Whisp) solution to implement convergence of evidence
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) drives the development of a pre-competitive digital public infrastructure to support compliance on aspects of the trade regulations related to forest monitoring. This is a collaborative effort between partners and programmes such as the European Union’s Team Europe Initiative (TEI)1, the Accelerating Innovative Monitoring for Forests programme (AIM4Forests) and the Forest Data Partnership (FDaP) working with the AgStack Foundation. This joint effort aims to support smallholders by enabling ongoing access to regulated markets through open-source solutions designed to bridge crucial digital gaps.
