". food, healthcare, water and sanitation, education, decent work and social security are not commodities for sale to those who can afford them, but basic #HumanRights to which we are all entitled." . Now and forevermore. #SDGs.
#COVID19 has been likened to an x-ray, revealing fractures in the fragile skeleton of the societies we have built. It has reinforced the need for solidarity more strongly than ever. We belong to each other. We stand together, or we fall apart.

Firsts have a special place in our minds and hearts. They are harder, they are imperfect, and they are brave. The first @FSC_IC certified rubber plantation in India under the #AsiaPacific Regional Forest Stewardship Standard. May it be the first of many.
