Communication activities
We would like to organise individual meetings with policy-makers to channel to them the insights and expertise that we gather from convening private companies in Europe and our programmes in the global south.
We are planning to produce policy briefs like the following one to inform the policy makers: https://www.idhsustainabletrade.com/publication/eu-regulation-on-deforestation-free-products/
Several times a year we are planning to organise events to publisise the insights form our policy briefs.Other activities

Meetings
Meetings

The list below covers meetings with Commissioners/Cabinet members/Directors-general (high-level) Commission meetings published December 2014 to December 2024, and the meetings of Commissioners/Cabinet members/Directors-general and officials holding "management functions" in the Commission published since 1 January 2025. Other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may well have taken place, but the Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. All information below comes from the Commission and not from the registrant.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
