Description

Bienvenue sur Europe et Globe

Le podcast qui explore le monde d’aujourd’hui et change notre regard sur les défis de demain

Dans ce premier épisode, nous allons expliquer ce qu'est le Règlement zéro déforestation de l'Union européenne (RDUE) qui devient obligatoire le 1er janvier 2026, voir qu'elles vont être les nouvelles règles du jeu et comment elles vont dans le sens du Pacte vert européen.

Puis nous verrons quelles sont les plus grandes forêts du continent africain et en quoi elles peuvent être affectées par la déforestation et quels sont les enjeux auxquels sont confrontés tous les gouvernements pour développer des systèmes alimentaires nécessaires pour répondre aux besoins d'une population grandissante.

Enfin nous expliquerons comment se conformer au Règlement zéro déforestation (RDUE) qui demande aux entreprises de répondre à de nombreux indicateurs, à respecter les lois des pays producteurs et à avoir tracer les produits jusqu'à la parcelle d'origine.

Welcome to Europe and Globe.

The podcast that explores today's world and changes the way we look at tomorrow's challenges

Just imagine. You're savouring a piece of chocolate, drinking your morning coffee, writing on a paper or using beauty products to look after yourself. Have you ever wondered what these everyday products have in common? We don't always ask ourselves questions about what we consume and yet, yes, all these products can have an impact on deforestation.

On May 31, 2023, the European Parliament and the Council adopted the Deforestation-free Regulation (the EUDR). We're going to look at the different sectors concerned, and in particular the products we import from Africa that may be affected by the new European regulation.

This European Union deforestation-free regulation covers a multitude of everyday products. Cocoa, coffee, soy, palm oil, rubber, beef, wood... But also, derived products that may not be obvious at first glance such as chocolate, leather, paper and car tires.

This Deforestation-free Regulation is sparking both enthusiasm and concerns. Its aim is to ensure that the operators who grow, process or buy these products comply with the laws of the producing countries, while guaranteeing that companies and smallholders are not the big losers under this new legislation.

How can we act on global deforestation while considering the realities and constraints of smallholder farmers, in Africa and elsewhere? Could this regulation really change something? We'll be talking about this in the next few episodes. We'll take a look at a number of sectors to give you a better understanding of the issues at stake and the state of readiness of the value chains. We'll talk about the different commodities affected by the EU deforestation-free regulation. And we'll travel here and there, to Côte d'Ivoire, Uganda, Namibia, South Africa, Liberia, Congo Brazzaville, Togo, Cameroon, DRC and elsewhere on the African continent.
