General Assembly
FSC AC / Geoff Howe
The FSC General Assembly is FSC’s highest decision-making body where key decisions are made. The general assembly which is traditionally held every three years, brings together leaders and decision makers from indigenous peoples, environmentalists, businesses, and many others in FSC’s membership to discuss a responsible future for the world’s forests and the people and animals who inhabit them.  Over 750 FSC Members and leaders from Indigenous Peoples’ Organizations, Trade Unions, Environmental groups, Companies, and individuals came together for the hybrid FSC General Assembly (GA) in Bali Indonesia from 09-14 October 2022.
