Join the technical working group to revise the requirements for Forest Stewardship Standards

The revision of four normative documents regulating the requirements for development and maintenance of Forest Stewardship Standards (FSS) is starting soon. We are looking for technical working group members to support the process; apply today! Applications are open until 24 May 2022.

In March 2022, during the 91st BoD meeting, the FSC Board of Directors approved a full revision of the documents, based on the review report, and recommended the revision to be done through a technical working group. The four normative documents contain requirements for development and maintenance of Forest Stewardship Standards. The revision process endeavors to update these requirements to make them outcome oriented and user friendly. The documents include:
*FSC-STD-60-006 V1-2 Process requirements for the development and maintenance of National Forest Stewardship Standards
*FSC-STD-60-002 V1-0 Structure and Content of National Forest Stewardship Standards
*FSC-PRO-60-006 V2-0 Development and Transfer of National Forest Stewardship Standards to the FSC Principles and Criteria Version 5-1
*FSC-PRO-60-007 V1-2 Structure, Content and Development of Interim National Standards

The revision process is starting in June 2022 and is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2024. To become a member of the technical working group, please fill out the application form below and send it to Cynthia Penaloza at c.penaloza@fsc.org by 24 May 2022.

The Staying Power of Catalogs

Catalogs are a tried-and-true instrument in a marketer’s toolbox delivering an in-depth product experience right to any home or office door. With the rise of the digital age, many thought that e-commerce would supplant catalogs, but the opposite has been true. Catalogs continue to hold their own as a marketing channel operating steadily alongside its digital brethren. Catalogs originated as a method to communicate product availability and highlight new goods. Now a company’s website functions in the same capacity and in real-time. Catalogs of today have evolved to serve as a means of inspiration, allowing consumers to visualize products in real-life situations with thoughtful detail and narratives. They also allow brands more room to tell their story and gain consumer trust. This can occur because, unlike the more frenzied pace of online shopping, catalog readers spend between 15 minutes to 30 minutes turning the pages and catalogs are retained for several weeks as a reminder to place an order, shop online, or visit a store.
