China is making significant strides toward sustainability, marked by its first shipment of RSPO Identity Preserved (IP) Certified Sustainable Palm Oil in 2024.In this special episode of The Palm Pod, we commemorate 10 years of RSPO’s engagement in China: a decade of building partnerships, shaping policy conversations, and promoting Certified Sustainable Palm Oil (CSPO) in one of the world’s most influential markets.Hosted by Fara Rom, our guest speaker, Chen Ying, a Sustainability Expert and former Director of the Cereals and Oils Department at the China Chamber of Commerce for Import & Export of Foodstuffs, Native Produce and Animal By-Products (CFNA), and a pioneering advocate for sustainable palm oil in China.Together, we unpack China’s progress in CSPO adoption, the impact of collaboration between CFNA and RSPO, and how global trends—like ESG reporting and the EU Deforestation Regulation—are shaping China’s green transition.Tune in for a deep dive into the challenges, breakthroughs, and future of CSPO in emerging markets.Learn more about sustainable palm oil at www.rspo.org. *The views and opinions expressed on The Palm Pod are solely those of the speaker and do not necessarily reflect those of The Palm Pod or the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO).
