FLEGT in the DRC

The government of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has requested to start formal VPA negotiations with the EU. In early 2010, the EU sent a delegate to be based in the country to inform different stakeholders about the process and prepare the ground for negotiations. Formal VPA negotiations are expected to start before the end of 2010.
