The annually released VAFI Sustainability Report aims to provide an understanding of the timber industry in Victoria and the role of the Assocation as a representative body and an industry leader; providing a
snapshot of the environmental, social and
cultural and economic performance of the
timber industry, and the governance and
stakeholder dialogue performance of the
VAFI. It is also a tool to facilitate better
dialogue among industry, government
and the community, and a resource to
support better decision making and
continual improvement. Sustainability reports are important
benchmarks that help the VAFI to reflect on our own and
the industry’s performance over time, and to develop new
strategies and activities to improve that performance.
The VAFI has been undertaking sustainability
reporting since 2005, as part of the Association's
Vision 2025 strategy and commitments.
A sustainability report measures progress
against goals established by the organisation
in governance, economic, social and
environmental performance, and introduces
new sustainability goals for the future.
Our goals are to develop a strong and
sustainable timber industry in Victoria
and this report provides information on the
progress of the industry and the activities
of the VAFI and its members.
