From October 2020 to January 2021, in collaboration with ETIP Bioenergy and IEA Bioenergy, SBP organised a series of five workshops to complement our Standards Development Process through providing an accessible and interactive platform for all of our wide-ranging stakeholders.

The workshops spanned a range of issues, including forest carbon, biodiversity and social impact. With over 650 delegates in total participating in the series, a spirited exchange of thoughts and perspectives was fostered, offering us great insights into those key issues.
