Brazil: International Campaign to STOP GE Trees Meetings and Events (May – June 2023)

Members of the Steering Committee of the Campaign to STOP GE Trees and other invited participants from around the world are coming together in Brazil in May-June 2023 to develop plans for the international campaign to stop the commercial development of genetically engineered trees, and to support and highlight opposition to the plans by the Suzano pulp and paper company to develop plantations of genetically engineered eucalyptus trees in Brazil.

The Campaign will meet with Brazilian NGOs and government officials, as well as documenting and amplifying the voices and concerns of rural communities on the front lines of resisting the devastating social and ecological impacts of industrial tree plantations.
