FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) sets high standards that ensure forestry
is practiced in an environmentally
responsible, socially beneficial, and
economically viable way.
FSC has developed a set of 10 Principles
and 57 Criteria for forest management
that are applicable to all FSC-certified
forests throughout the world.
The 10
Principles are summarized below:
• Compliance with Laws and FSC Principles
Forest management must abide by all
applicable laws of the country in which
they occur.
• Tenure and Use Rights and Responsibilities
Rights to the land are clearly defined and
clearly established.
• Indigenous Peoples’ Rights
Indigenous peoples’ rights to own, use,
and manage their lands are recognized
and respected.
• Community Relations and Worker’s Rights
Maintain and/or enhance the long-term
social and economic well being of forest
workers and local communities.
• Benefits from the Forest
Encourage the efficient use of the forest’s
resources and services to ensure economic
viability, and environmental and social
benefits.
• Environmental Impact
Conserve biological diversity, water resources,
soils, and unique and fragile ecosystems and
landscapes, maintaining the ecological
functions and integrity of the forest.
• Management Plan
A plan is written, implemented, and kept
up to date, including statements of longterm
objectives.
• Monitoring and Assessment
Monitoring is conducted to assess the
condition of the forest, yields of forest
products, chain-of-custody, management
activities, and their social and
environmental impacts.
• Maintenance of High Conservation
Value Forests
Management activities enhance the
attributes of high conservation value forests.
• Plantations
Plantations should complement the
management of, reduce pressures on, and
promote the restoration and conservation
of natural forests.
