DEVELOPING SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARDS FOR REDD+ A guide for a bottom-up approach
This guide has the objective of providing a platform for duplicating the process in other countries where the subject REDD+ may also involve risks and challenges. We hope that, as we have done in Brazil, this process can be carried out in an open and democratic way, with ample participation of civil society and representatives of indigenous peoples, local communities and smallholders.

Does certification make a difference? Impact assessment study on FSC/SAN certification in Brazil
Yes, certifying does make a difference. That’s the answer to the question in the title of this publication, and the conclusion of the study that evaluated three socio-environmental certification cases: two related to FSC forest certification (planted forests in southern Brazil and extractive communities in Acre) and one related to agricultural certification by the Sustainable Agriculture Network (SAN) in coffee enterprises in the Cerrado region and southern Minas Gerais. The analysis covered several regions of Brazil (Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul, Acre, the Cerrado, and southern Minas Gerais) and different certification environments (communities, forestry companies and farms).

Forworknet update: Focus on forest certification (January, 2008).
As shown in this newsletter, FSC certification expects workers and their representatives, local communities, governments, nongovernmental organizations and other stakeholders to be informed, to be consulted and to closely follow the social and environmental practices of certified companies and local communities. Being a certification body, we must consult the largest possible number of stakeholders, and mobilize their cooperation.

FSC Forest certification - Simple guide for forest stakeholders.
The high rate of deforestation and degradation of tropical forests resulted in the 1980s, in the boycott of tropical timber in Europe through campaigns organised by some nongovernmental organisations of the North.
Research carried out following this boycott revealed that logging was not the only cause of deforestation - but that there were many other causes such as agriculture, grazing and so on.
Consequently, the idea of forest certifi cation came into being in the 1990s. Several systems of certifi cation were developed and by the way, brought confusion in the mind of consumers. Very quickly, certifi cation lost its credibility.
In 1992, the Alliance of wood workers, traders and representatives of environmental and human-rights organisations working for the protection of rainforests (Rainforest Alliance) proposed the creation of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) whose Founding Assembly met in October 1993.
By integrating all the existing systems of certifi cation into its scheme, this body gradually gained the confi dence of various stakeholders and consequently became the only credible system accepted by the majority. This guide is a simple tool to be used by the rural communities and all the stakeholders interested in the FSC forest certifi cation process… -

FSC forest certification guidelines for forest workers and their unions.
These guidelines are the result of the field experience accumulated by IMAFLORA - Instituto de Manejo e Certificação Florestal e Agrícola (IMAFLORA - Institute for Forest and Agricultural Management and Certification) over its ten years of existence and of its disposition to encourage greater participation of workers' unions in the FSC Forest Stewardship Council certification process.
IMAFLORA firmly believes that the participation of all stakeholders in monitoring environmental, social and working conditions in forest management operations, be they certified or in the process of obtaining certification, will ensure the continuous improvement of the work environment and the quality of life of forest workers. Such participation is also very important in strengthening the FSC certification scheme.
Due to the relevance of the subject, these guidelines received inputs from a number of labor unions and related organizations in Brazil and in Latin America, especially from the Latin American Regional Office of the International Federation of Building and Wood Workers (IFBWW), with whom IMAFLORA established a partnership to publish these guidelines also in Spanish and English.
We trust that forest workers' unions will be able to make good use of the opportunities brought about by the FSC forest certification process. Hopefully, these guidelines will become an additional tool to improve the dialogue and negotiations between workers and certified forest enterprises, improve working conditions, strengthen union activities, and contribute to the adequate utilization and conservation of forest resources. -
