EUDR Practicalities: A Fast Track BIC Project: Launching in Late May 2025
Introduction
In our book industry supply chain, all organisations are trying to work out how they are going to implement EUDR. How does the required data information flow through the supply chain? What are your organisation’s responsibilities under EUDR?
Would you like to be part of the solution to these questions, and help improve the book industry’s impact in these areas? As part of BIC’s overall supply chain remit, and more specifically, BIC’s Green Promise we are now looking for volunteers from our membership to participate in EUDR Practicalities: A Fast Track BIC Project which will build on the BIC EUDR workshop from April 2025. The aim of the project is to provide practical guidance to organisations to help them navigate EUDR.

- Are willing to actively contribute to the project in addition to reliably attending the weekly meetings
- Want your organisation to be best in class

- Are happy to commit to promoting, adopting, and measuring the outcomes of the project

Deadline
Please send your application by Tuesday 27 May 2025. Successful applicants will be contacted and should be available to join an online project kick off meeting 29 May 2025.
All upcoming BIC projects that have not yet started will be listed here with details on how BIC members can get involved. Once projects have officially launched/held their first meeting, the associated information will move to our Live Projects page.
Upcoming projects are suggested by BIC members, discussed and agreed at BIC committee level and subsequently signed off at board level as part of BICs annual strategy discussions and also periodically as required throughout the year. If you are from a BIC member organisation and would like to suggest a project for BIC to undertake, please contact us.
