About the session

Commodities such as palm oil, livestock, soy, coffee and cocoa are some of the main drivers of agriculture related land use change. They are also key commodities of the FOLUR Impact Program, which seeks to transform global food systems through sustainable value chains. This session will feature expert insights and case studies on how financial institutions can proactively respond to newly proposed regulations and accounting standards to drive change in landscapes and across value chains.
