Prior to the field visits, participants attended in-class sessions in Bogor, West Java covering topics such as barriers, challenges, and opportunities in the palm oil sector; lessons learned from the ISPO certification process and sustainability; and best practices in sustainable palm oil plantations. Participants also engaged in discussions on good and sustainable agricultural practices from each participating country.
