Goals / Remit
The goal of EUSTAFOR is to promote the common interest of state forest in the EU in the scope of their sustainable development. The Association supports and strengthens state forest organizations in Europe to maintain and enhance an economically viable, socially beneficial, culturally valuable and ecologically responsible sustainable forest management.
The main objectives of EUSTAFOR are:
1) to analyze and investigate the existing framework conditions within the EU, in order to create the preconditions for sustainable management of state forests;
2) to facilitate and expand an exchange of ideas and contacts between the state forest organizations of Europe;
3) to keep its members regularly informed on topics and issues that concern the whole of Europe.Main EU files targeted

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
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.
