FSC Verified Impact (formerly ecosystem services verification) builds on FSC forest management certification by providing forest stewards with a framework for monitoring and verifying the impact of conservation and restoration activities. Once impacts are verified by an FSC-accredited certification body, FSC Verified Impact helps forest managers and owners to quantify the intangible value of their forest with third-party validation. This data can be shared with stakeholders, showing the real-world impact of their responsible forestry practices. It can also be used to attract investments, sponsors, and other rewards for maintaining services that are not recognised by traditional markets. Main purpose and responsibilities Encourage uptake of FSC forest management certification and impact verification though technical support and guidance to forest managers/FSC group scheme managers Promote FSC s Verified Impact to potential funders and help to connect businesses to ecosystem-services projects in FSC-certified forests.
