Since the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared Coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic on 11 March 2020, the situation has continued to evolve daily, with numerous countries implementing government mandated restrictions, quarantines, social distancing, and/or other preventative measures. We fully acknowledge the significant impact this is having on the global community at large, and want to assure our valued members and stakeholders that the RSPO Secretariat is working to support you, and to the greatest extent possible, ensure business continuity throughout this difficult period.
In light of the ever growing situation, we endeavour to keep you informed on all RSPO/ COVID-19 related news and information below. And please check back often for the latest information and updates:
