  • Central America’s first VPA? Perspectives on FLEGT in Honduras

    Posted on: July 27th, 2011 No comments
    In early April 2011, and following some initial contacts between Honduras and the
    European Union (EU) in mid-2010, a series of meetings and workshops were held
    in Honduras with the objective to explore the potential negotiation of a Voluntary
    Partnership Agreement (VPA) between both parties. Further progress is expected
    in the coming months.
    This briefing provides information about progress achieved so far, and reflects on
    the opportunities for and challenges to successful negotiation – and implementation
    – of a VPA. It is aimed at stakeholders both in Honduras and the EU, as well as
    the international community working on VPAs in other countries around the world.
