Roundtables
How are they organized?
The PACN is implemented through voluntary Roundtables, in which producers, groups and/or associations, companies and sectoral chambers of each of the productive links of the value chain may participate, ensuring full national geographic representation.
Each MS, assisted by the PACN team, is accompanied by a group of specialized consultants, selected by the PACN and the member companies considering their background, technical and economic proposals. Based on the product categories defined by the MS, the scope and the calculation methodology, the selected consulting group develops, on witness cases, and with the contributions of the validating member companies develop a sectorial calculation manual, a calculator and a manual of good environmental practices focused on carbon.
