The Global Forest & Trade Network is WWF's initiative to combat illegal logging and drive improvements in forest management while transforming the global marketplace into a force for saving the world's valuable and threatened forests. By strengthening the links between companies committed to achieving and supporting responsible forestry, GFTN creates market conditions that help conserve forests while providing economic and social benefits to the businesses and people that depend on them. GFTN's Annual Report 2012 reflects upon the successes within the program and progress in responsible forestry and trade during Fiscal Year 2012 (July 2011 – June 2012).
