Governance & Sustainability

Sustainability,
built in from the start

In forestry and carbon removal, sustainability claims are only as reliable as the systems behind them.

Built to withstand scrutiny

Each project is structured around defined responsibilities, specialist partners, and measurable KPIs.

While the projects differ in structure and technology, the underlying approach is consistent: governance, monitoring, measurement, and reporting are embedded from the start.

Structured stakeholder engagement

FLS treats stakeholder engagement as a key factor in long-term project resilience.

For Project Midgard, FLS works with Fundación Moisés Bertoni, local authorities, and community representatives.The process is designed around public consultations, ongoing dialogue, and an independent grievance mechanism that provides a clear, secure, and auditable path for raising concerns as the project develops.
