The Investor Policy Dialogue on Deforestation (IPDD) is an investor-led sovereign engagement initiative that aims to halt deforestation in some of the world’s most biodiverse, carbon-absorbing biomes.
Set up in July 2020, IPDD’s goal is to coordinate a public policy dialogue on halting deforestation by engaging with government-related authorities and associations, industry and trade bodies and other stakeholders.
