overview

This map was developed to support [reporting guidance](https://accountability-framework.org/news-events/news/deforestation-and-conversion-free-supply-chains-and-land-use-change-emissions-a-guide-to-aligning-corporate-targets-accounting-and-disclosure/) published by the Accountability Framework Initiative (AFI), in partnership with the Science Based Targets Initiative (SPTi) and the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol which outlines recommended indicators. Companies using this new workflow are encouraged to report on the volumes produced on landscapes where deforestation risk is considered negligible utilizing a number of different methods. <br>Sub-national jurisdictions classified as negligible risk are those that have collectively experienced less than 1 percent of cumulative natural forest loss relative to the entire country. This process is adopted from a similar process utilized by Trase to assess deforestation risk associated with cattle production in Brazil.

function

Classifies sub-national jurisdictions as negligible or non-negligible risk, based on cumulative natural forest loss from 2021 onward

cautions

This map was developed to support reporting guidance published by the Accountability Framework Initiative (Afi), which includes reporting on volumes produced on landscapes where deforestation risk is negligible. It is not an indicator of legal compliance, nor does it account for non-forest ecosystems at risk of conversion.
