In policy and strategy development, ECO works on different levels:
At country level we support reforms processes in forest legislation reforms, e.g. through analysis and provision of comparative examples as recently done in China.
At international level ECO gives advice to forest relevant political processes such as IPF/IFF/UNFF and Multilateral Environmental Agreements (SSD, CBD and UNFCCC).

ECO also provides various analytical services on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development’s policy in the forest sector (such as the strategic concept paper for forest related work, as well as contributions to the federal policies such as enquête commission statements). Furthermore, ECO assists German DC agencies in their strategic development (e.g. policy papers on Secondary Forests, nature conservation, wood energy, Gender).
