IRI Peru convened the webinar, Effects of the Anti-Forestry Law Passed by Congress, on 3 April. The webinar brought together 33 members from its local chapters to reflect on the scope of Law 31973 passed by Congress that modifies the procedure for classifying land by its capacity for major use (CTCUM), which would allow the legalisation of agricultural activities without the necessary technical support. At the end of the webinar, it was agreed to implement creative measures to achieve the repeal of this law. Furthering this commitment, IRI Peru met with Congresswoman Ruth Luque, President of the CPAAAAE to jointly develop the strategy for the presentation to the President of Congress.
