The Council of Palm Oil Producing Countries (CPOPC) is an intergovernmental organization founded by Indonesia and Malaysia to collectively promote the global use of palm oil. Together, the two countries produce the majority of the world's palm oil, a product that has come under pressure due to environmental concerns. The CPOPC was founded in 2015 following the establishment of independent palm oil sustainability standards in both countries, and part of its purpose is to harmonize sustainability standards between the two.
