Double recognition for Forestwise! 💚 We are incredibly proud to announce that Forestwise has won two prestigious awards from the Sintang district government: 🏆 Ekonomi Kerakyatan – for our work in improving the income of local communities. This recognition is extra special as we received this award for the second consecutive year! 🏆 Pelestarian Lingkungan – for our dedication to protecting the environment and safeguarding the rainforests we all depend on.

Hi! Forestwise is reaching out to the Linkedin community to find a (tree) nut expert. We are especially interested in finding a way to remove resin from the nuts, ideally without using water. If you have any ideas, or if you know everything about (tree) nuts, or know anyone who does, please respond to this message or reach out to be@forestwise.earth or to Dirk-Jan Oudshoorn through LinkedIn. Thank you! 🙏 #stopdeforestation #collaboration #BeForestwise

Hi, we urgently need a project manager for our Illipe nut sourcing project. If you are interested, please send us your CV as soon as possible. If you know someone in your network who would be a good fit or interested, please share this post. Thank you!

Forestwise presented in Paris during the #SCS2024 about how our rainforest ingredients support forest conservation and restoration and our journey to adapt to various sustainability certifications. It's so inspiring to hear the stories from so many sustainable leaders about the efforst and impact companies are making for a cleaner world during this summit, including presentations from our partners at LUSH and AAK and other inspiring brands like Seilich and Weleda AG. We hope to collaborate with many more companies we met during the summit and further increase positive impact, because every generation needs a rainforest 🌱🌏
