Production landscapes
Transforming sourcing areas into forest positive landscapes requires action that goes beyond individual supply chains. The Coalition is advancing this by supporting landscape and jurisdictional initiatives (LJIs), with the aim of scaling up collaborative action across areas equivalent to its members' combined production footprint by 2030. These landscapes are essential for protecting forests, conserving biodiversity, strengthening climate resilience, and supporting local livelihoods.

Sustainable landscapes partnership
The Sustainable Landscapes Partnership (SLP) is a joint initiative between the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), Soft Commodities Forum, and the Consumer Goods Forum’s Forest Positive Coalition. It brings together agri-commodity traders, consumer goods manufacturers, and retailers within an investment framework that is currently operating in Brazil’s Cerrado biome.
We focus on supporting resilient landscape models that are:
- government-led;
- farmer-supported;
- corporate-anchored and;
- based on common MRV and KPIs for aggregated program-level reporting, aligned with leading global frameworks.
So far, $10 million in co-funding has already been allocated to around 700 farms, covering more than 750,000 hectares, for the next three years.
