Compliance and beyond – partnering with voluntary sustainability standards to tackle deforestation in soy
Companies sourcing soy face increasing pressure to ensure their supply chains are legal, traceable, and deforestation and conversion-free in light of evolving sustainability regulations such as the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
This webinar will launch ISEAL's new soy case study, developed with the Round Table on Responsible Soy (RTRS) and the ProTerra Foundation. It is the latest instalment in ISEAL's series exploring deforestation-risk commodities and how voluntary sustainability standards (VSS) can support companies in meeting deforestation and conversion-free (DCF) requirements and going ‘beyond’ compliance to drive broader sustainability impact.
In this webinar, we’ll explore:
- Practical insights on how VSS can support companies in meeting deforestation and conversion-free (DCF) commitments, specifically the EUDR
- Why smallholder inclusion is essential for long-term success beyond compliance
- How VSS strengthen traceability and transparency across complex soy supply chains
- Lessons from company experience in using VSS to strengthen traceability and due diligence
