Instituto Centro de Vida and Trase have published a new dataset on deforestation permits that could help companies, regulators and financial institutions manage deforestation risks in supply chains.

Trase maps global supply chains of agricultural commodities, providing insight into how consumer markets are linked to deforestation and other environmental impacts via their imports. This explainer on Brazilian beef presents the results of our analysis of the latest data for 2021, 2022 and 2023.

A new paper by Trase emphasises the need for governments, companies, and civil society organisations to combine different perspectives and metrics to prevent blind spots in monitoring deforestation.
