TTAP is a project aimed at the reduction of trade in illegal timber by helping the members of European timber trade federations to work towards legality verification of their timber and wood products and to implement robust Chain of Custody (CoC) systems.
In 2005, TTAP started to work in the tropical timber producing countries Cameroon, Congo, Gabon, Indonesia and Malaysia, and in 2007 in Bolivia, Brazil, China and Guyana, assisting forest and timber companies to take practical steps towards producing and trading legally verified timber.
The seven year project is co-financed with 7 million Euro by the European Commission, with matching co-funds provided by partner trade federations and their members (2 million Euro)*.
*TTAP is financed through two projects: TTAP 1 (March 2005 February 2010) and TTAP 2 (January 2007 to December 2011). Each has a budget of 4.5 million Euro.
