Goals / Remit
In April 1993 the Forest and Land Owners' Association of Lithuania (FOAL) was founded for the first time in the history of the country with the initiative to represent the interest of forest owners and to develop the institutional framework for the family forestry and subsequently became registered as a public organisation (on 8 June, 1993).
The creation of a strong and independent private forestry movement in Lithuania, based on shared values, has been a major goal of FOAL since its creation, as demand for knowledge in forestry was increasing and a growing community of forest owners with increasingly common purposes emerged.
The FOAL is the national interest organisation for the forest owners in Lithuania and has the status of an independent public NGO. FOAL is recognised national organisation in Lithuania and internationally. FOAL consists of: Member of Chamber of Agriculture of Lithuania; Member of Confederation of European Forest Owners (CEPF); Member of European Lan (...)Main EU files targeted

Meetings
Meetings
4 meetings found. Download meetings
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.
