Remedy Process
What is the FSC Remedy Framework?
FSC Remedy Framework is developed by the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) and is outlined under FSC-PRO-01-007 V1-0 EN. This framework aims to remediate environmental and social harms caused by unacceptable activities and past forest conversions as defined by the Policy to Address Conversion (FSC-POL-01-007 V1-0).
FSC Remedy Framework defines the permanent, effective measures required for implementation by entities involved in land conversions between December 1, 1994 and December 31, 2020, or those conducting past unacceptable activities as described by the FSC Policy for Association 2 (FSC-POL-01-004 V2).
Key Focuses
Remedy is delivered in two key areas to restore the loss of conservation values:
Environmental
Environmental remedy seeks to improve ecosystem conditions following disturbances caused by past land activities. Actions may include:
- Restoration of forest areas and wildlife habitats
- Rehabilitation of riparian zones, wetlands, and HCV-areas
- Enhancement of biodiversity protection
- Regular monitoring and evaluation of environmental restoration initiatives
Social
Social remedy seeks to redress the harms experienced by affected communities due to past land activities. Actions may include:
- Identification of affected parties
- Dialogue and consultation with stakeholders
- Clear resolution of grievances and conflicts
- Creation and implementation of remedy agreements through an FPIC process
(FPIC)
+ Free, Prior and Informed Consent
A principle that guarantees the rights of a community to grant or withhold approval for any project or activity that affects their other rights, territories, resources, and interests.
FPIC assures that:
- Any community decision is made free of coercion.
- Information on the project is fully and clearly delivered.
- Consultation takes place before decision-making and project execution.
