SUMMARY:Nature-positive Forest Value Chains for Sustainable Productivity
DESCRIPTION:This P-Talk highlights the significance of sustainable solutions for nature-positive economies. Biodiversity sustains human life and underpins our societies.

In this P-Talk\, Makiko Soma\, WWF Japan\, focuses on forest management and introduces recent government policies and business practices. She also discusses the keys to achieving nature-positive forest commodity value chains for sustainable development and shares the implications for long-term productivity. \nPlease click here to watch. \nSubscribe to our APO YouTube channel for more videos and updates on our activities. \nFor any inquiries\, please write to p-talk@apo-tokyo.org.
